New site we created: KatrinaPetsNeedHelp.com
Mark and I were feeling so frustrated about everything happening in regards to Hurricane Katrina, especially the stranded pets, but we don't have a lot of money to donate. So we thought, "Well, we know web design... Why don't we create a website with links to a ton animal rescue organizations so people can make donations and learn about the rescue efforts and how to volunteer? That doesn't cost us a lot to set up, and doesn't take a lot of time, but hopefully will result in lots of donations, so why not?!"
So, that's what we did. We threw it together in less than 24 hours, and I think it turned out pretty well.
Below you'll see the banner link to our site. PLEASE take a look or at the very least pass the URL along to your friends and families. These poor animals need our help so much, even tiny donations make a difference.
Feel free to copy and paste the banner in other message boards -- anything to spread the word.
Thanks for taking the time to look at this post.

Great idea! Good for you.
There is a Yahoo Group that you might want to add to your site if you haven't already. Hurricane Pets

I'll add this to my board. I run a debate board on ezboard (go.ezboard.com/binternationaldebate - you have to be registered to view it). We have over 300 members, some down in the area. I'll post this. Thanks.

Thank you for taking the time to look out for the pets that so far have been neglected in this sad situation.

Awww, shucks! Thanks everyone for your kind comments. We didn't do it for the compliments but it's always nice to get an ego boost now and again anyway!
(I'm not faring quite as well in the same thread on the Marriage-Based visas forum, some people actually criticized it! :scared: )
Cindy, the BestFriends.org site is already on our site, but the Noah's Wish isn't. I've been made aware of it by several people and will have Mark add it asap. With all the digging I did to find organizations, I'm surprised I didn't come across it before...
Thanks again for all your help. Just make sure you spread the word and/or make a donation to one of the outfits.
