Got this from my pal Jo, who is helping out with relief efforts in New Orleans.

If you want to make monetary donations, you can make the check out to Alabama AFL-CIO, mark it for Hurricane Katrina Relief, and mail to 435 S. McDonough St. , Montgomery, AL 36104. We, the CWA, have several technicians on loan to both Mississippi and Louisiana as both states are included in our CWA District, as well as Alabama. There was damage in south Alabama also. The Alabama AFL-CIO has 2 full-time labor liaisons with the Red Cross and United Way. So we are collecting donations thru our state labor council. U can also go to the CWA web site www.cwa-union.org and link to how to help. Let me know if you need any more info. Thank everyone for their concern. It has been horrific for everyone. Many of my friends have lost all and others are trying to pick up pieces that are left. It is now the time for all of us to take care of each other, as we are all brothers and sisters.
