Something To Make You Feel Good for a Change


You've probably already donated money to the victims of Katrina via some reputable and trustworthy organization.  And while it does give one a good feeling to know that one is helping, it doesn't feel exactly personal, does it?

So, here's your chance to have a more direct contact with aid efforts.  As she has detailed at BlondeSense, AnntiChrist S. Coulter has been purchasing toiletries, baby supplies, and basic necessities, and dropping them off at shelters in LA and MS, to help those devastated by Katrina.  She's passed out over $300 worth of supplies already, and will be delivering more Sunday -- and she's planning on Orleans parish early next week.

As she said in one of her latest posts:
Thank you all so much, you have no idea how much you have filled our hearts with joy with your generosity and kindness and willingness to help. We have seen the gratitude already on the faces of New Orleanians all over this area already, from the shelter here to the Winn-Dixie to the guys from Second Harvest. You aren't just changing lives, you're SAVING livesWhich beats the fuck out of Pat Robertson's pyramid schemes any fucking day.
If you can spare a few bucks, consider sending something to fund Annti in her mission of mercy.  Hey, I know she used to get offers all the time to help finance her proposed missions of destruction (to be visited on bad guys only, of course) -- and I think this is an even more noble cause.

You can send her funds via PayPal.  As Annti says:
I have a PayPal account now.  It will accept credit and debit cards. Use my e-mail address of joannaagain@hotmail.com and my name, Joanna Beattie. This money won't hit my bank account until Monday or Tuesday, but it will help us get into Orleans Parish by then.
You can also send her money via Western Union.  She is going to try to pick up those funds today (Sunday).  They do charge you to send money that way, but I don't think the rates are too exorbitant.  Here's some info on that:
WESTERN UNION: E-mail me with your info, how much you can send, what city you're sending it from, your full name, and a phone number as a reference, to the same e-mail address, joannaagain@hotmail.com and I will send you all of my relevant information, so that you can make sure that the money gets to the right place/person.. .... If anybody else wants to send money via Western Union, send it to me ANYWHERE IN LOUISIANA, and e-mail me so that I'll know to look for it, who it's from, and how much to ask for. You know how nosy those people are...
Annti adds:
THIS IS NOT A SCAM. I AM NOT A NIGERIAN WITH FORTY MILLION TO TRANSFER INTO YOUR ACCOUNT. I AM NOT KEEPING THE CHANGE, EITHER. And I WILLprovide receipts for goods purchased and digital pictures of the loot to anyone who donates, as proof of our work.
But I am on a fixed income, and am doing everything that I can with what I & Jake have. If y'all can help, good on ya. If you'd rather give to organized efforts, good on y'all too. JUST PLEASE, PLEASE DO SOMETHING.
So, if you can, send some money to Annti, to be used to help the hurricane victims.  Do it, and light a single candle.  Then we can go back to cursing the darkness.
