Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath have been called the worst natural disaster in American history. Entire cities have been destroyed, thousands are homeless, thousands more are estimated to have perished and the situation is still not under control. In the face of this disaster we are encouraging our members to donate in whatever capacity and through whatever channel they see fit.

To make things simple, we've set up the button below for donating on the ZS site. We are pooling donations and will distribute the collected funds to either the American Red Cross or another FEMA approved disaster relief charity.

Please donate to help us raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

THE FUND DRIVE IS NOW CLOSED!!
Thanks to the 100 donors who helped to raise this donation.

Why should you donate through ZS?

• Pooling our donations together will hopefully allow us to give a larger gift as a group than we would as individuals.
• The first 100 donors that donate $15 or more we will recieve you a cool gift to show our appreciation. We're mailing out a special edition black military style Dog Tags with a ZS logo on one side and "Zombie Squad Relief Drive - Hurricane Katrina 2005" on the back.
• You will get your name (or whatever name you choose) listed on this website as a donor to this fundraiser.
• If you are on our disaster preparation forum you will get an image under your name showing that you are a donor.
• You will get 50% off Zombie Con 2006 if you donate $100.00 or more.
• We have ZERO adminstrative costs for this fund drive unlike a lot of fundraising organizations out there. Every cent we raise here will go directly to relief charities. All of our staff are volunteers.
• We hate zombies.

At the end of the month we will be sending out a check to the charity organizations decided on by ZS from a list of reputable charity organizations approved by FEMA and Federal Trade Commission. Our first choice is the Red Cross but if we get enough money in we may dispurse the funds to a number of charities.

When we send in the check we will also list the names of the donors (if they choose to be listed) so you will get credit for your contribution.

If you don't feel comfortable donating through ZS please don't let that stop you from giving!! There are a number of fine organizations dispersing funds to help aid affected communities: http://www.usafreedomcorps.gov/content/about_usafc/newsroom/announcements_dynamic.asp?ID=1049
