News about our greek life brothers and sisters in the Gulf Coast area

I think most of our groups have updates on their websites about how our brothers and sisters are doing in the affected areas.

http://www.kappadelta.org/NewsItem.a...2005-08-30.xml is ours. So far, no reports of severe damage to any KD houses, and no loss of life yet reported. However, a lot of our sisters and their families have lost their homes.
I hope that KD will organize some way for us to help them.

Post any info about your chapters here!

Good job reporting! I heard the Mayor of Chicago just asked everyone that could afford it, to send $100.00 to the Red Cross.

Tri Sigma has 4 chapters in Louisiana:

UL-Lafayette
Northwestern State University
Southeastern Lousiana University
Nicholls State University

According to HQ, our foundation is doing everything they can to help sisters from these chapters who were affected by the hurricane. I believe that Southeastern was the chapter closest to the hurricane's path. We have yet to receive damage reports from any of the chapters at this time.

Same with Phi Mu. I was really shocked that thre was nothing on our national website and then another sister on Lj directed me to our private side.

Phi Mu Foundation is collecting donations to help affected sisters.

It's the same with Sigma Kappa. We have information & ways to help but it's only accessible to sisters only.

A very sweet story -- the DZ chapter at LSU has taken in a Times-Picayune reporter who was a DZ at South Carolina and who lost her New Orleans home:

(Scroll down for the story "Sisterhood.")

Alpha Chi Omega will be releasing a statement sometime soon on the website. I am pretty sure things are OK from what I've been hearing.

I haven't heard any public updates from yesterday; I actually didn't think about checking out the private side for our own updates. Anyway, here is Tri Delta's update: http://www.tridelta.org/news/news_hurricane_katrina.asp

I really hope they were able to make contact with those chapters by now
