LA and MS, Help is on the way!

Here’s a list of the items we have collected so far to assist with the Hurricane Katrina animal rescue effort. We worked closely with individuals on the ground in Mississippi and Louisiana to determine exactly what is needed. Some of these items have already been shipped to Mississippi; some are in the van going to Gonzales, LA with our volunteer rescue team. We have more items to ship and are in need of additional donations to assist with postage! Checks sent to Red Door should be designated "Hurricane Katrina" in the memo line.

Thanks so much to everyone who gave items!
