As reported by FreeMoneyFinance and many others, it's Hurricane Katrina Blog Relief Day today. Instapundit is tracking a lot of the flood aid and hurricane katrina relief blog activity.
FMF has generously offered to match your donation to the organization of your choice with a donation to Samaritan's Purse. He has a way to go to reach his $500 limit, so there's still time to effectively double your donation to the relief efforts. I've made my donation to the Red Cross and taken him up on his match offer. Thanks FMF!
I urge you all to give just past your comfort zone whether that amount is $5 or $500 or more. If it helps you give more, please consider how your true out of pocket costs can be reduced through tax deductions and rewards credit cards...then just do it :) The devastation wreaked by this natural disaster and it's aftermath is horrific.
Don't forget to email FMF ( fmf [AT] freemoneyfinance [DOT] com ) about your donation so he can match it!
Thanks for the mention! I've now passed $500 and have increased my match up to $1,000. Details can be seen at:
