They need shelter, they need clothing. They need our help,” he said. “There will be a time and a place to review the actions that have taken place, and to learn from any mistakes that may have been made. That time is not today. We must channel our emotions and turn them into resolute and meaningful action. Today is a time for all Americans to join together to help our fellow citizens so desperately in need.” “It is in our darkest hours that we, as Americans, have always found a way to overcome the most devastating tragedies. I have no doubt that once again, together, we will overcome,” he concluded. · American Red Cross · New Jersey Red Cross · Federal Emergency Management Agency · The White House Hurricane Relief Information · Operation Blessing · America’s Second Harvest · The National Database of Nonprofit Organizations (GuideStar) | ||
