[Elfsea] Re: Katrina Relief

[Ameline DuBois]

Let's all be calm, Please do not condemn people or groups. I know people
are still working through what they can and can not do. We do have an
event in a few weeks this is an important thing to look at. Many are
working to asses there life and time they can give. We in Elfsea will do
what we can, this event is long term not just two or three weeks there
is time to help. I know I am cleaning out my and my kid's closet today
and I am looking in to perhaps taking in an entire family for one or two
months. The Red Cross and Salvation Army have gotten money and donations
from Elfsea people too. I do not want people in my barony playing the,
we can do more than the next group. This is never good. Be thankful and
take what you can get from your friends, they know what they can do. I
know people will give what they can. I will be proud of Elfsea no matter
what they give. I know we will give what we can.

Thank you so much Your Excellency. Your assistance, support, and supply
donation are much appreciated.

 

 

Friends, I don't know how to say this delicately, without sounding harsh
or criticizing. Believe me, I'm trying. But straight to the point of
this message, I'm fairly disappointed in the lack of response I've
received from a barony so reputed for it's giving, helpful nature.

 

Perhaps Rixend's or Genna's efforts have produced more results from
Elfsea. But as of today, only 2 people from Elfsea have contacted me
directly with an offer of supply donations.... being our good Baron and
the ever-giving Mistress Xene. The only donations delivered to me were
from non SCA'ers.... being my children, grandmother, aunt, and a close
neighborhood friend (whom is currently campaigning for more goods from
her church group). They all know these items are to initially be
delivered to SCA evacuees who've taken refuge in Louisiana &
Mississippi... and still gave to our cause without hesitation.

 

Friends, PLEASE help. I'm sure many of you have donated to one cause or
another already. But on my part of this supply collection, less than 1%
response from such a large barony is shocking... and I know we all have
things we don't use or wear that could be put to a better cause. This is
an effort that has been coordinated by several kingdoms, and in Elfsea
we are the largest collection point for Ansteorra. I'm going to
personally travel with the items into Louisiana & Mississippi to the
end-points to ensure their safe delivery... hopefully providing
additional protection for Sarah, who'll be driving most of the trip.
This is not a scam, but a perfectly legitimate crusade to help our
friends in need. You're most welcome to keep tabs on the progress
through this site.: http://www.clanmarshinfayne.org/rollcall/index.php

 

 

I'll attempt to collect goods at the Wed night fighter practice in
Bedford this week, permitting Disaster Relief training doesn't overlap.
I'll post an update to that information ASAP. Meanwhile, you can contact
me via any of the means below to establish a delivery time of your
goods. Also listed below is an updated list of items we wish to collect.
Please be advised Rix and I leave the afternoon of Sept 8th. That's this
coming Thursday. Very few items or truck loads, we will head out as
promised and scheduled. I thank you in advance for your contributions.

 

 

Regards,
