While it is understandable that many of us want to go to the aid of those in need and help with the relief efforts, officials have requested that volunteers stay out of the affected area. Conditions are still unsafe in many locations. Additionally, there is no infrastructure to support volunteers at this point. Roads are out, shelter is scarce, and food/water is unavailable for large groups of volunteers. For those who want to help, the best guidance at this point is to stay out of the area and give money to support coordinated relief efforts already underway. At the point officials identify ways they can use our help, we'll let you know.

Given blood lately?

Let the professionals (or at least the trained amateurs) do their thing. There'll be plenty of time for the untrained amateurs later. (Cough-cough-Sean Penn-cough)
