The American Red Cross is continuing to expand their Hurricane Katrina relief efforts on a massive scale as they provide emergency shelter, water, food, counseling, and additional assistance.
Their massive response to Hurricane Katrina is the largest response to date (for a single natural disaster) in 125-year history of the organization.
The Red Cross needs YOUR help now.
