2. Try contacting your local Red Cross..

Perhaps they could transport them along with the other supplies they'll be sending down to NO....

3. I am thinking about buying some insulin and perhaps another box
to donate...Since most insulins are over the counter...

7. That's a nice thought
but remember that insulin needs to be kept cold and not handled roughly for it to be effective.

4. If any of your local news stations are collecting supplies
for a rescue attempt, maybe take them there. Or call the local National Guard. Maybe they left a person to man the phones when they sent all of them to Iraq. Maybe that person can tell you the best place to be sure they get there.
