Jackson Free Press

As our state and our Louisiana neighbors face the two-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina with many thousands of people still living in FEMA trailers, and the possibility of another hurricane looming, the Jackson Free Press pauses to send a prayer to all the victims of a devastating hurricane. Click here to view the JFP's KatrinaBlog, started the day after the hurricane hit the Coast, and archiving Katrina-related stories and posts by JFP writers and readers.

Anyone remember the donations thread? For me, that's my most vivid memory. Everyone needed something, even if it was just ice and gas.

Right, L.W., I kinda wish we'd kept up the "triage blog" as we called it. That was amazing; we posted needs and people around the country responded. That's what I spent most of my time doing the first week after Katrina.
