I spoke last night to a friend of mine who is the Chieftain of the St. Andrew's Society of Baton Rouge about potential assistance. He said other Scottish societies have been in contact asking what they can do as well.

Our St. Andrew's Society's executive committee will be meeting this evening to discuss potential hurricane relief programs; we plan to have a donation "kitty" at our booth at the upcoming Southwest Missouri Celtic Festival & Highland Games, and our Kirkin' in November will also have a special offering for Hurricane relief as well through the Episcopal Church's Relief and Development fund.

Another Scottish group I belong to is planning to volunteer a few hours with the Red Cross and/or Convoy of Hope.

I just wish there was more I could do.
