Default Re: Charity Tourney for Hurricane Victims?

Hurricane Katrina is likely to be the worst storm in the USA in 30 years. The zoo and 2+2 have always stepped up in times like this and I don't expect this to be any different.

How about a charity tourney for the famine victicms in Niger ? The cash would do a 100 times more good there than in Louisiana. No disrespect to the hurricane victims intended.

There is tons of tragedy in the world. But, I guess you have to pick your battles. Like, when I was younger I had friends that would go to huge protests in other states or even canada (like for WTO). I never understood why they didn't try to do things in their community.

I think if we do the charity event we need to make sure the money goes to an organization that will give most of the money to the victims. There are a lot of charities with big payrolls that don't help a lot, because the money doesn't go to the one's who need it.
