I'm a fellow St. Louisan who is currently volunteering in Waverly, Iowa in the wake of the worst flooding I have ever seen.  The Red Cross is here in Waverly and in 30 other cities and towns across the country helping people get back on their feet. We're providing hot meals, shelter, clothing, medicine, emotional and physical health services - all at no charge to those in need. And we'll be here until every last need is met.

These services are made possible thanks to people like you who donate to the Red Cross National Disaster Relief Fund. Right now this fund is nearly empty. We need your help. We know that the economic downturn has left many of us with little to spare for charitable giving. Even under these circumstances, the American people have always helped disaster victims when they need it most. Take it from me, I'm here on the frontlines and I have seen numerous families who have lost everything. Your help is needed. If you can, please donate to the Red Cross.
