Volunteering in July- Gulf Oil Spill...

Alright folks, we are looking at areas in the Gulf states to volunteer to help with the Gulf clean-up/recovery from the BP oil spill. I have contacted two organizations in FL and one in LA so far. Mississippi seems to not be as open to volunteers as the other states, if I continue to find it hard to contact someone in reference to volunteering they'll be off the list. But, anyway- we are planning to go July 23rd-26th. If you or someone you know from the North GA area is interested please shoot me an email- krista@sororsweets.com. If there are restrictions-maybe you can't go to LA for whatever reason but you are able to go to FL please say that in the email. Since this is just now in the beginning phases it will be a lot easier to gear towards a certain area now rather than later.

If you have any information about recovery efforts in any of the states, please email me that also. I was on http://www.oilspillvolunteers.com/ for a bit and found the contacts in FL and LA.

If you'd like to make a donation, txt the word "wildlife" to 20222. $10 will be charged to your cell bill.

ALSO- tell your hair dresser and dog groomer about this: http://www.matteroftrust.org/programs/hairmatsinfo.html they take hair donations and use them to try and collect oil!
