For much of the past week, I've been watching the events unfold on the Gulf Coast, and have wanted to help, but didn't quite know how. Right now cash is a little tight, so my solution was to donate something I do have...a cutting board waiting to be sold (http://cgi.ebay.com/Figured-Maple-Cutting-Board-Exotic-Hardwood-Accents_W0QQitemZ4403414012QQcategoryZ46282QQssPag eNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).
I know that eBay is spoken of in hushed tones around here, but it seemed the logical choice, since they have the mechanisms set up to assure buyers that their money will go to the intended charity.
The cutting board I'm selling was made a while back from some leftover short pieces, so my cash outlay was very minimal. I'm sure some of you have already donated time, money, or other things to help, but urge any of my fellow Creekers to look around their shops and see if maybe there's something laying around that could perhaps be donated in a similar manner.
