We all have seen the tragedy that has taken place on the gulf
coast of the USA caused by Hurricane Katrina. The pictures that
we are seeing are horrifying, tragic, and overwhelming. It truly
makes one think how precious life truly is. As stated by the
White House, over 90 000 SQUARE MILES is affected by this
disaster! In response to this disaster, all charitable
organizations are organizing the largest mobilization of
resources for one single US natural disaster in the history of
the US. As we sit in our home that is not threatened, enjoy our
meals with our families and be able to tuck our children into
their safe bed at night, we need to stop and think of those
hundreds of thousands of people that are not able to do this and
may not be able to for months to come. These people can not even
get access to the basic necessities in order to survive. This
true desperation we are seeing, is what will spur us into action
to help those that are in need. How can we see these pictures,
stories and videos of our fellow citizens suffering and not take
action? With the onslaught of this natural disaster left in the
wake of Hurricane Katrina, we must realize this is also a time
for dishonest people who pray on these charitable feelings of
those wanting to help. We all need to help in one way or another
BUT please safeguard how you help and make sure your hard earned
dollars are put in the right hands to help the people that are
in need. Just in the last few days, we are seeing many people
