FilmAid's Response To Hurricane Katrina

Our hearts go out to everyone affected by Hurricane Katrina. As we learn more about the inconceivable devastation and human tragedy in the wake of this storm, we encourage you to support one of the many worthy organizations responding to the emergency needs of the hurricane victims (see links below). With the possibility of hundreds of thousands of refugees being forced to find shelter for many months to come, FilmAid is actively exploring how we might assist with our programs. We will alert you to our plans for Hurricane Katrina refugee relief once immediate emergency needs are met. Please check our website—and those listed below—often over the coming days and weeks.
