More than one kind of security: Katrina response 

http://www.hurricane-housing.org/ matches up people who have spare bedrooms with refugees.

Money is the best thing to donate to a relief agency. Volunteers can help by answering the phones and taking donations: the Red Cross is being overwhelmed by contributors (now that is the America I know). If you have interviewing or HR skills then ask your local Red Cross chapter if they need someone to help with volunteer intake.

Wherever you live, you're subject to natural disasters too. Do something today so you won't be part of the problem later. Run your car on the top half of the gas tank, put extra canned food and bottled water on your grocery list, take a first aid class.
