I know we've all been giving this past week, but reading Sue's message you can't help but realize that things are even worse than we realize and that this is an extraordinary situation -- and that it will continue for some time.
 
There are also other members of MOPO in the affected area. We've heard just a bit from Joe Bonelli who is still unable to get back to his home. We haven't yet heard from Fred Sliman. I think there are at least one or two others in the area whose names don't come to mind at this moment.
 
Anyway, I've just done something I've never done before.
 
I've set up a fund pool to benefit any member of MOPO who is affected by this. Any donations will be pooled and distributed evenly every Monday to any exisitng member of MOPO whom we can identify as affected. This way even a small donation of $10 bucks that you might feel uncomfortable sending to an individual can be pooled into a sizeable amount and given, in effect, "anonymously" -- or rather, be given "from all of your friends at MOPO".
 
To expedite matters and keep good records, the fund will take only PayPal donations using this email address:
 
 
The needs and the stress from this unprecedented event will be affecting our friends for quite a while. I think this could be a small help and comfort that virtually all of us can afford to extend. After all, 400 plus donations at even $10.00 each is over $4,000.00.
