As everyone knows by now the widfires are raging in California. Since there are many people facing loss of homes and other hardships involved in this disaster, and we all hope for the best for everyone, there is some information I think needs to be shared.
As a member of John Edwards One Corps we have done things around the country to help people who may be less fortunate than ourselves. Organize food drives, work at soup kitchens, donate goods for the soldiers to let them know we haven't forgotten them and that we do support them. Well it is time to step up again, we learned from the actions of FEMA after Katrina hit New Orleans, we can't trust this President or his cronies to act in a timely manner, it is up to us to care for those in need and lend a hand.
Follow me after the fold for a few actions suggested by Senator Edwards, because as he says, "It's time to be Patriotic about something other than war".
