It’s human nature — the better part of human nature — to want to pitch in when bad times strike. I remember an English professor telling us the story of a snobby neighbor — who wouldn’t let the kids play together — but was the first to bring blankets and offer assistance when there was a fire.

In the same spirit, I see many links to worthwhile organizations springing up in the wake of Katrina, and this outpouring of assistance is all to the good.

One of the things that came out of this for me was some thought to an organization that I’ve supported in the past but hadn’t thought about in awhile. It’s America’s Second Harvest, the nations’s largest hunger relief organization. Sure enough, naturally they working hard to help out Katrina victims today — but that’s just part of the good work they do all the time.

In case you want to donate, here’s the link where you can make a cash donation.
