If you’re considering contributing to the Katrina relief effort, you might want to do it through the Memphis Grizzlies Charitable Foundation – they’ll match your donation. See details below. Thanks to my friend Amy for forwarding this info to me.<\/p>\n

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, donations of cash and goods are pouring into dozens of organizations aiding the disaster relief efforts. I am sure many of you have already made donations, volunteered your time, or even opened your homes to victims of the disaster. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span> <\/div>\n

IF YOU HAVEN\u2019T ALREADY made a donation to support the relief efforts, I encourage you to make your gift to the Memphis Grizzlies Charitable Foundation<\/span><\/b>. Our team\u2019s owner, Michael Heisley, has offered to match all<\/u> cash gifts 1:1 and then all funds will be forwarded to the American Red Cross. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/span> <\/div>\n
In other words, if you donate $50, it will be doubled by Mr. Heisley; $100 will go to aid the Red Cross. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/span> <\/div>\n
All donations are welcome; none is too big or too small. That is why, even if you have made a donation elsewhere, even the smallest gift will be doubled if you make a donation to the Grizzlies Foundation. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
