Bud & Alley's and Caring Community raise $31,000

At Bud & Alley?s last night the Hurricane Relief Jam and Silent auction was a great success. Roughly 450 locals, tourists and displaced victims of the storm attended. At last count we raised $31,090.00 for the American Red Cross Katrina Relief. Included in this total $5700.00 was taken in just in the $10.00 a person door fees; that amount is matched by Bud & Alley?s and the rest was from a great silent auction. Many others just handed us checks, some as large as $500.00. Thanks to all who pitched in from the musicians to the donators to the folks who came for a great evening of music and fellowship. In four days we put together the event through email, posters and word of mouth; it was too late to get it in local newspapers. What a great, caring and involved community we have. :clap_1:



Also: We are also going to give $2500.00 out of the total towards two planeloads of supplies to go directly to Ocean Springs Mississippi; Glen Seawell of Seaside has taken one trip to drop off supplies already. The mayor of Ocean Springs made a direct plea for help for formula, diapers etc? Contact Glen, 543-7745. or the Seaside Chapel if you want to sponsor more flights.
