If there was a way to anonymously donate (not necessarily only to this cause) I might be a lot more inclined. In this particular case, I'm wondering what will happen next month, or the month after that. I understand the need for emergency help, but finding a long-term solution looks to be just as critical.

Is your friend a member of a church community? When I was young, a friend's mother passed away and his father was disabled. Their house was in dire need of repair, and the parish organized a team of people to make the necessary repairs. You might want your friend to approach their local parish priest, etc. ASAP to see if any help can be found. When I was growing up the parish had all kinds of fundraisers, food drives, etc. to help people in need.

Thanks Windcatcher. Some good ideas from you, too. Thank you.

Like you, I try to remain anonymous. But remember, I am the one that got the cease and desist order a couple of years ago from sony, so obviously you are doing a better job :P

Or, maybe I make them more nervous <devious laugh>
