Help Colorado

I'm posting less about games and more about everything else. I should have named it Susi's Random Blog instead of Gaming Abroad, oh well.

Colorado is experiencing a series of wild fires. One is in my home town of Colorado Springs, the Waldo Canyon fire. 18,500 acres have burned but the fire is only 5% contained.
No home for you =(
Smoke cloud from a distance
Over 300 homes and business have been destroyed. 32,000 people have been forced to evacuate their homes.

I'm asking anyone with a kind heart to donate to one of these organizations. Even $5 can make a difference.

Pikes Peak Red Cross 
Care and Share A southern Colorado food bank
Wild Fire Tees A group of business owners who designed T-shirts for the relief effort. Buy a shirt and proceeds will split between the Colorado Red Cross and Care and Share
North Shore Animal League Help support pets displaced by fire.
