Here's how to help Gustav evacuees

I hope to round up all the local coordinated efforts at helping our temporary neighbors who are in the area due to Hurricane Gustav. If you know of any I've missed, leave a comment or send me an email: [ buggy shoes (at) gmail (dot) com ] (no spaces).

The American Red Cross, Greater Chattanooga Area chapter is operating a shelter at the Brainerd Recreation Center (next door to Brainerd High School on North Moore Rd). The Times Free Press has more. It sounds like the Red Cross is asking more for funds than for supplies.

U.S Senate candidate Bob Tuke is turning his military care package service into a storm refugee relief operation. Donors can bring goods to the Hamilton County Democratic Party headquarters on Patten Pkwy at 4pm today.
