We would like to help a family that has lost a loved one as a result of the September 11th bombing of the WTC.
There has been a tremendous outpouring of donations on behalf of the victims of 9/11 to some of the larger charity organizations (such as the United Way and Red Cross -- two wonderful organizations). However, in many cases there have been delays getting the money to the people and much frustration has developed because of this.
We, as a small group, can put on an event, raise some money, and give it directly to one or more of the families -- a direct gift from those of us who participate and organize.
