In the aftermath of destruction many are driven by the need to help. Given the tremendous work ahead for CUs in New York and Washington, CUNA Mutual field representatives suggest that CUs contact their leagues to coordinate contributions. According to the American Red Cross, monetary donations are the best way to help for now. To locate additional charities the websites www.libertyunites.org or www.helping.org can be helpful.
