Disaster News Network

http://www.disasternews.net

The Disaster News Network,sponsored by Church World Service, is a new, under construction Internet site offering comprehensive, timely news and information about response to US disasters. In addition to articles about breaking events, individual sections provide up-to-date information about ongoing regional disasters. The site is intended to aid voluntary organizations involved in helping disaster survivors put their lives back together, and includes a nationwide database of disaster-related volunteer opportunities indicating where volunteers are needed. Other features include annotated disaster-related links, several specialized listservers, and soon, an on-line facility for making disaster relief donations.
