Help Out

There are a hundred-million reasons why I am a lucky girl. Number one on that list is because I am not involved in the situation in New Orleans. I thank my lucky stars for my current situation, and I pray for those that have lost their homes, families and pets. People in New Orleans have not only lost their material belongings but they have relinquished their sense of safety, control and their hope for a brighter tomorrow. They deserve our love and care. This was a disaster and the people of New Orleans and other affected cities have been betrayed by the government. It is our turn to help them…this is the time when we can show that we are not a country divided by Race, Color, Creed, Red and Blue States…we need to help. They have nothing.
The McCormick Tribune Foundation has pledged to match 50 cents on every $1 for the first 2 million dollars. On top of that they have stated that they will pay their administrative costs…so ALL of the money donated will be sent down south!
