Hello,
I have a brother, a sister, 3 aunts, and an uncle who barely escaped New Orleans
with their lives. However, they lost everything their homes and businesses.
We are giving them as much support as we can.
Presently, I am desperately searching for my elderly grandmother, Mariam Luster,
who was initially at the Superdome.
Some of you have called me with your prayers and support, which have made the
burden easier to deal with. If you are inclined to donate to the general relief
efforts, here are a list of giving options.
