Having made it thought several storms, here are a few suggestions. Toilet articles (toothbrush, shampoo,soap, brushes, combs. etc.) Toys, games, books and maybe a stuffed animal for kids. Any type of food which doesn't have to be cooked, snack bars are wonderful.

Adding two cents worth, which is only more 'suggestions'... tampons, wetwipes, feminine pads, talc.... Noreen
My own add-on after seeing and hearing on news reports about babies and elderly people in diapers for three days straight... their skin *has* to be just about raw by now... how about disposable diapers for both babies and for adults who need them?
Peace! Gemini
Excellent, Gem, AND, Desitin ointment, first aid creme, antibacterial handstuff.... the list is endless! J2CM, Noreen
Hi,
I've just joined Kitts Yahoo group and they are saying crayons and coloring books for the little ones too.
Hugs,
Nora
Aww, God bless them! I wish I could send them some stuffed clown dolls that I make... something to cuddle would be nice.
Peace! Gemini
Nora, how did you find your way to the group that Kitt has... and do you have to actually be a contributor (ie making the facecloths, etc) to join the group, or can people join just to talk and contribute by posting free pattern URLs, etc?
Peace! Gemini
I already cleared posts, Gem, but if you can locate MINE with Kitt's letter, I THINK the link is there. Noreen a little frustrated today, will tell ya'll later...
Yes, Gem, you can join the group, Kitt would appreciate those URLS you found! (and you already know, you are TOO contributing, lol!) Noreen

I'm not trying to hijack any threads...just trying to keep the number of OT posts to a minimum. Anyone in the Philadelphia area that wants to help the expected 5000 Katrina victims that are expected to arrive in the next couple of days, should go to the website set up by the city to see what they can do:
