Watching the destruction in Texas yesterday on the news and having watched similar havoc in Louisiana just days before, I felt moved to contribute.
The Red Cross reported that week that they had to borrow funds to cover the $8 or $9 million they estimated they would send in aid to Louisiana. I'm sure they will need more than that to cover for Ike's damage.
It's easy to contribute. Just visit redcross.org. Donations are tax deductible for those who itemize on their tax returns.
'til later

- Greetings! I have years, no decades, of financial experiences to share. I have a passion for education. I am a control freak in that I need to know where my $ goes. I continually ask myself do we need that, what risks are we taking with that investment, how/when can we get at our $, and just how much does Uncle Sam demand of our every earned $. Stay tuned to my life choices now and my references to life choices/experiences from my past.
