So the news tonight had a story about the local charities going out of business cause no one was giving them anything since the WTC thing started. It seems that everyone has funneled their charitable contributions to NY and are hurting the locals in the process.

Any specific ones?  We just had a huge United Thug campaign at work and they raised over $1Million for various charities.  Most of the ones listed were locals.

The Star of Hope Mission was one and another one was one of the battered women's shelters. I just figured this was probably happening all over the place as well.

Oh geez, those are both good charities.  Enron or one of the other energy companies should donate some money.  It's a tax write off for heaven's sake.
