We at AsiaFinest wish to express our sorrow over the destruction and loss of life caused by Hurricane Katrina along the Gulf Coast.

Victims of Hurricane Katrina are attempting to recover from the massive storm. American Red Cross volunteers have been deployed to the hardest hit areas of Katrina’s destruction, supplying hundreds of thousands of victims left homeless with critical necessities. By making a financial donation to support hurricane relief efforts, the Red Cross can provide shelter, food, counseling and other assistance to those affected by Hurricane Katrina.

There are many ways for AsiaFinest's members to help out and donate:

1) http://www.redcross.org/ donate or volunteer here.
2) Amazon.com is accepting money for Red Cross
3) PayPal.com is accepting money for the United Way Hurricane Katrina Response Fund
4) Verizon Wireless Customers, donate to the American Red Cross Hurricane Disaster Relief via TXT Message
How to donate:
