WHERE ARE THE RED CROSS, THE SALVATION ARMY, THE CHARITIES?
I found out that one thing that the Red Cross is doing. Running classes for 3 week volunteers.
Before volunteers are deployed to the regions devastated by hurricane Katrina, they have to undergo a prescreening process and take"introduction to disaster and shelter operations" classes offered at the chapter's office in Stockton."These are classes for people who have not been volunteers before, because when they go they will be working probably in the shelters for all those thousands of people in shelters," Veselak said.
The first class has started and a second one is about to begin.
I hope the hungry and thirsty can wait. Do these people know the meaning of emergency?
I heard on German TV that the ambassador has not decided yet whether to accept the German offers to help. Israel wanted to send doctors. Had they gotten the go ahead, they would have been there days ago. I know elephants move slowly but this one take the cake.
