NOLA PSA from E-Verse

I'm out of town, so I'll keep this short and very very sweet. I got this from the daily e-verse mailings sent out by Ernie Hilbert:
E-Verse PSA: A reader sends in a way to help Katrina survivors with no bureaucratic middleman. Just pack up clean, usable stuff and mail it off. The City of Houston postal service has set up a zip code just for the Astrodome/Arena/Reliant Center so that people can get donated items. The address is: General Delivery (or put name of person/group etc.) Houston, Texas 77230 You can send these items addressed “general delivery,” or to a specific person if you know they are there, or you can address it to a group of people. Suggested Group Names: Refugee Pregnant and Nursing Mothers Refugee Men Refugee Women Refugee Babies/Children Refugee School age Children Refugee Children: TOYS/ART SUPPLIES ENCLOSED Refugee Elderly (Includes diabetic testing supplies, vitamins, adult nutritional supplement, depends, canes, walkers, etc.) About Baby Formula and Baby Foods: Formula must be NEW, UNOPENED, and UNEXPIRED. READY TO FEED OR POWDERED IS OK. There is PLENTY OF CLEAN WATER IN HOUSTON. If you are sending formula, Plastic Bottles/Nipples MUST be included. Pacifiers/soothies also needed. NO GLASS CONTAINERS. This includes baby food. (Gerber makes a plastic food container.) PEDIALYTE NEEDED BADLY Badly needed items include: Socks and underwear, all sizes, Women's Feminine, Products Toiletries
Now you know.
