Saturday, August 14, 2004 — In the largest storm response effort since Hurricane Andrew, the Red Cross is coordinating a massive response effort focusing initially on providing safety and shelter for the now homeless, as well as food and dry clothing to tens of thousands of people. At the moment, hundreds of trained disaster volunteers are converging on the affected areas, where already some 80 Emergency Response Vehicles are moving though damaged neighborhoods offering food and drink The Red Cross will also be providing clean-up kits and other relief supplies.

You can help the victims of Hurricane Charley and thousands of other disasters across the country each year by making a financial gift to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund, which enables the Red Cross to provide shelter, food, counseling and other assistance to those in need.

You can also donate to Operation Blessing, a branch of The 700 Club, VA Beach, VA, who is the primary provider of the foods being supplied to the Salvation Army kitchens in the disaster areas.

I think you can reach them at CBN.org and then look for the How to Help Hurricane Charley Victims line in the middle or so of the home page. I don't know how to post hyperlink.
