I'd like to see a DU donation drive! DUers paid for a man's surgery

[meisje]

Why not get donations and buy a house or two for the victims?

1. indeed

nice idea

the hard part wouldn't be raising the money but actually buying the house, deciding who to buy it for, and getting everyone pissed off because you didn't buy it for someone else.

Without an infrastructure people would be suspicious about just turning over money to a cause like this. Andy's surgery was a very clearly defined goal.

2. Auction off Dr. Marble putting a message on your home answering machine.nt

4. Because someone would get overlooked

We probably can never ever get every DUer affected by Katrina which means some might receive more than others or someone will get overlooked

5. Are you volunteering to oversee it?

Make sure to get admin approval, sounds like a great idea.
