Due to the path of Hurricane Gustav, residents along the gulf coast of Mississippi have been evacuating their homes. If you want to help those evacuating, here are some suggestions:

1) Donate supplies to local churches in your area who are organizing relief teams to travel to Mississippi.

2) Donate supplies to designated shelters in Mississippi. For a list of shelters that have been opened, go to www.msema.org (Mississippi Emergency Management Agency).

3) Supplies that are generally needed during such emergencies include bottled water, baby formula, diapers, flashlights, batteries, etc.
