Thank you for all those who took the time to offer your recommendations on local charities We Love Colors could donate. We have chosen the following Hurricane Katrina Relief charities for donations, in addition to one direct donation to one of our customers from Chalmette, Lousiana that lost everything including her home after Hurricane Katrina.

5% of all We Love Colors sales for month of September 2005 are going directly to these organizations and individual as checks to be mailed within the next week. Funds will be divided at our discretion with greater proportion of allocated funds going towards causes we feel most strongly.
