Like all of you, we were shocked and horrified by what we saw take place in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Many of you have asked if we know of progressive groups in the south who are taking donations to reach out to those displaced and left behind. We've collected the list below, and while it is in no way complete, we will continue to update it as we get more information. Please let us know if there's any organizations that should be added.
