The authorities are indicating that the best way to help the
relief efforts for Hurricane Katrina affected areas is to donate
money to the relief organizations. Consequently, Compassionate
Kids is initiating fundraising efforts for all Compassionate
Kids chapters throughout the country.
Compassionate Kids group leaders and members throughout the
United States will be setting up a "Disaster Relief Flea Market
Fundraisers" with all sales going to official disaster relief
organizations.
Members are strongly encourage to set up these events in their
areas, so they will take place in various locations throughout
each state. This will also help limit individual's drive times
(and gas purchases). Some may choose to have the events at local
flea market locations, while others may choose to simply have
yard sales at home.
ALL proceeds must benefit any one of the FEMA recommended
charities at right.
Once an event is planned, individuals may choose to promote the
event locally, on Compassionate Kids message boards (available
to members only) or on this website by sending a notice to [This
