MO/KAN Helps Out

I'm finding it hard to blog about Katrina. It's so overwhelming that I just don't know what to say. So I'll start with some of the local relief efforts. Here are some of the things being done in the Missouri/Kansas area to help out Katrina survivors:

31 injured children from New Orleans are being flown by the Missouri National Guard to Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Update: More here.

University of Kansas will admit students displaced by the hurricane.

Missouri National Guard Mobilizing 180 Military Police to send to the Gulf Coast.

Kansas City TV Station raises over $200,000 for The Red Cross. Update: $412,000.
