Help Victims of Katrina at DCDL Tonight

by Keith

Sorry for the late notice. Those of you on the e-mail list have already gotten this message from Cory.

Dulles Area Democrats are collecting items for survivors of Hurricane Katrina that they will drive from Virginia to food banks in Baton Rouge and Little Rock. Kat Zambon from DC for Democracy will be at Timberlake’s (1726 Connecticut Avenue NW) tonight to collect items from DCDL to hand off to the team in Virginia. They need nonperishable food items and toiletries — a specific list of items is below. Please contribute whatever you can. It’ll make a huge difference to the folks who need it. Thanks for everything you do!

  • fruit cups
  • granola bars
  • bottled sports drinks
  • fruit juices
  • cookies
  • crackers
  • chips
  • candy bars
  • small boxes of dry cereal
  • canned vegetables (beans, peas, carrots, etc.)
