The mail is hopeless, you can't depend on it.  Try one of the Katrina missing person websites, there are several, and see if your friend is listed there as missing or found.  Just go to Google and put in:  katrina missing lists  and you will get a lot of sites to look on.  You can also go to craigslist.com and click on New Orleans, in the column over on the right.  They have lots of Katrina-related info; you can also post a message asking your friend to contact you.  Nola.com also has a missing persons forum.  \n\nI am downtown New Orleans, and I still am not receiving mail.  Good luck.

This is likely not practical but....\n\nIf you can locate a church in the NOLA area, many are providing relief direct to the victims instead of going through an organization with too darn many administrators.\n\nExample - A member of our church was an insurance adjuster who went down on a catastrophe team.  But while there, she noted a church supplying materials (primarily roofing) and food directly to victims.  We simply gave the money to that church - and it was not even our own denomination - knowing that this money was going to help a whole lot more than the many organizations who have staffs to support and expenses to take off the top.\n\nNot sure how you can locate a church doing that kind of work at this late date but if you can, that's the way to make your donation go the farthest...

Hey Blondey. You can find heaps of information just by using the Yahoo! search engine. Just type in "Hurricane Katrina".\n\nI just did a presentation on Katrina last week, myself. \n\nKatrina made landfall on Monday, August 29, 2005. It came ashore just east of Grand Isle, Louisiana, at 6:30 A.M. E.T. (eastern time). Katrina was a category 3 storm with 115 mph sustained winds on Saturday, Aug. 27th- but by Sunday, it had intensified to a Category 5 storm, with winds of 160 mph.\n\nThe president of the New Orleans city council estimated that more than 100 people in the city were stranded on their rooftops or in their attics, because there was up to 14 feet of floodwaters in and around their homes (reported by Dave Cohen of CBS radio affiliate WWL).\n\nSome facts that support the government response:\n\n1. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy, and other search and rescue units were in New Orleans or elsewhere in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama on Monday, after the storm passed out of the area. \n\n2. The full extent of the devastation to the Gulf Coast Region and the levee breaches in New Orleans were not known until Tuesday.\n\n3. A convoy of about 500 buses reached the Superdome late Wednesday.\n\n4. The first of 500 busloads of evacuees reached Houston early Thursday.\n\nThere was a lot of criticism towards the government's response to Katrina, as well. Do a little research, and you will find plenty of things to talk about. Good luck!

I went down to that area staying in the Madevlline Church of Christ.  While we did liittle work working in New Orleans.  Most  of the work was in Waveland, Mississippi, It is impossible not to be effected by the devestation.\nEspecially when you speak with people who have a job and no home.  If you have been there just for five days you will be traumatized.

Amen, "slyone". \n\nWhat a joke. The city of New Orleans had the most money alloted to them for levee improvements throught Army Corps of Engineers projects for years and years before the hurricane hit. What did they do with it? Nothing!

hello, i am from louisiana, 30 minutes south of new orleans. i am not exactly sure what the answer is. you are probably talking about the 9th ward (which is one of the hardest hit areas), it is not one of the best neighborhoods and that could be why they do not want to rebuild. i heard something about it becomming a rich neighborhood. but honestly who would want to rebuild there. the entire area is protected by a levee. the other area that was hard hit was chalmette, the entire parish flooded and the water was up to the roofs of the homes. i personally would not live in an area protected by a levee. also i am sure that most of the people in the 9th ward area can not afford to rebuild. the insurance companies aren't exactly being fair. i hope i helped you understand a little bit better, if not feel free to contact me.
