Hurricane Katrina has devastated the cities, homes, and lives of fellow Americans. Help is trickling in, but much more is needed. We’d like to call on the frequent travel community to lend a hand.

As in the past, we reply on MileDonor.com to compile to list of giving options by program and strongly suggest you use this resource to donate what you can. We do ask that before you visit this Web site, you take the time to read and re-read this month’s column by Joe Brancatelli. This will give you several ideas on how best your miles and points might be contributed to this effort. As well, we understand that FlyerTalk Cares, the community care project of FlyerTalk.com will be active in adopting individual groups and families for relocation efforts that will require the donation of actual frequent flyer awards. We plan in joining in this effort and will be setting aside individual awards from the New Orleans/Texas area.
