| Hurricane Katrina Relief Effort |
| Update |
| We received word from our contact at Fort Polk... the Watkins truck with two trailers has arrived! |
| They have unloaded the trailers and are in the process of distributing the shipment to local shelters and distribution centers. |
| They are overwhelmed by your generosity, love, and care for people so far from home... and they are amazed by what was accomplished in such a short time. |

| The Mayflower truck has arrived in Alexandria, LA. |
| The population of Alexandria is normally 40,000. |
| After Katrina, the population swelled to 80,000. |
| Today there are nearly 150,000 people in the area, many in shelters. |
| Obviously there is an overwhelming demand for help in this area, and the donations from San Diego are greatly needed and appreciated. |
| Congratulations! We did it! |
