Hillary Clinton: Help Is Needed

09/01/2005

Dear DFL Member and Supporter,

As we learn more about the destruction and loss caused by Hurricane Katrina, I know each of us is thinking about what we can do. If you have not already made a contribution to aid in hurricane relief efforts, I hope that you will do so by going to:

https://www.redcross.org/donate/donation-form.asp

As I said yesterday when I visited the Red Cross office in New York, my heart goes out to the families and loved ones of the victims of Hurricane Katrina, who are faced with not only devastating personal losses, but also with the widespread destruction of their communities.

New Yorkers will never forget the generosity that descended upon New York City four years ago in our time of need, nor the enormous difference it made in our efforts to cope and to rebuild in the face of great tragedy.

I’m going to the New York State Fair in Syracuse tomorrow, and will be talking about Katrina, and how we can work together to reach out to the people who have lost so much. If you’re going to the Fair, I hope you’ll come by to say hello. And please join me in sending our thoughts, our prayers and our help.

Sincerely,
Hillary Rodham Clinton
