Our thoughts and prayers go out to people whose lives are being devastated by Hurricane Katrina

When we hear the stories of the people, the families, the children whose lives have been so profoundly impacted we feel deeply saddened. And it reminds us how truly blessed we are. We have a comfortable home, our loved ones are alive and well, we have great health, wonderful friends, money in the bank, work that we love doing, plenty of food to eat and clothes to wear.

For all of this we are very grateful. This isn't simply an exercise to help us feel better. We believe that gratitude can take us from hopelessness and pain and propel us into action creating the word that we desire.

We suggest that anytime you feel saddened by circumstances beyond your control, you spend a few minutes identifying all the things you are grateful for and celebrate all that you have. Then see if you can identify one thing you can do to contribute to someone else, and take that action. We are confident that doing this will bring joy and satisfaction to both you and to the people you touch.

After considering everything we are grateful for we are moved to find ways we can support those who need so much help right now. In addition to directing our regular giving to those affected by Hurricane Katrina, we have decided to donate 10% of the proceeds of the next Access Seminar to this cause. It's just a small part of what is needed but we hope it will make a difference for a few families.

If you feel compelled to help the people who are being affected by the Hurricane Katrina here are a few organizations that will accept your donations of money and supplies. These groups need help meeting the emergency needs of people in their area.

(We found the following at http://www.yesmagazine.org/svgblog/ )

The Enterprise Corporation of the Delta and the Hope Community Credit Union will use donated funds for immediate relief, and then help people rebuild their homes and businesses in the distressed communities where these not-for-profit organizations have been operating for a dozen years in Louisiana and Mississippi.

The Baton Rouge Area Foundation is estimating that as many as half a million displaced people may be in Baton Rouge for up to six months. The foundation's "Hurricane Katrina Displace Residents Fund" is seeking funds to assist with housing, food, basic necessities for these hurricane refugees. A second fund, "Hurricane Katrina New Orleans Recovery Fund," will help those who return to the Greater New Orleans area get back on their feet. The Baton Rouge Area Foundation is a non-profit community foundation composed of over 300 charitable funds.

One of our favorites is The American Friends Service Committee , which has a 87-year history of life-saving assistance and work for long-term justice.

A list of additional reputable organizations can be found at Network for Good.

With love and inspiration,
Beth and Neill
