Latest Jim Alger Mission Update
These photos were taken just a few moments ago. Jim was in West Virginia this evening picking up a load of supplies to take back to Jackson, Mississippi. (Click photos to see larger versions.)To recap, you can read our earlier posts about Jim's mission using his own plane to assist the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

You can also assist Jim with the costs of air fuel by contacting Louise Stone at 818-400-2353 to make a donation. We salute Jim for his efforts and thank all of you who have supported him in this critical effort to assist the victims on the Gulf Coast.

Does Jim still need baby items?
Please let us know.
Hey guys - I deleted the posts here about DiFi and Alex from this post not because they were bad posts (many good points), but because it has nothing to do with this topic. And more than usual, this topic should only have on topic posts so we can get the information out about what Jim needs to help the folks in Mississippi.
Please stick to the issue here - and you are more than welcome to take the DiFi and Padilla stuff to one of the open threads.
Thank you.
Thanks Mayor Sam, I am glad you did that.
Any update on Jim Alger, mayor sam?
Is Jim Alger a Democrat, Republican, or what?
He's a Democrat.
Gracias
Why does that matter???
Nope, just curious.
Jim is simply doing what is in his blood. He is helping immediately where help is needed and providing aid to those in need that are not being attended to.
He is working with a team of pilots and others to get help to areas ignored by media coverage.
Simply, Jim is not the type to talk about what should be done and Monday morning quarterback. He figured out what needed to be done and went out to get it done.
We here are his supply chain. It is really simple. Everyone here who wants to help should jump in.
If you have questions, Louise's phone number is posted and so is Jim's e-mail. This is what
community is all about.

I forwarded Jim Alger's information from this site, and a link to Mayor Sam, to all of my friends and family. Some of them have already contacted other friends, employers, and family and requesting their help to send supplies or fuel money. I figure, I sent an email to 75 people, they send it to their family, friends, coworkers, employers and so on.
