 | | IEEE President Cleon Anderson, Region 3 Director Bill Harrison, and Region 5 Director John Meredith join me in encouraging U.S. IEEE members, who want to make personal donations to relief or reconstruction organizations, to give to any of the organizations identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), listed online at: http://www.fema.gov/press/2005/resources_katrina.shtm#donate. |
 | | FEMA has an ongoing need for engineers, but only volunteers who have registered and completed agency training will be deployed on its disaster response teams. |
 | | Finally, as many of our members and other engineering professionals are currently involved in the efforts to restore power, communications, water and sanitation to the affected areas, IEEE/IEEE-USA communications staff are responding to media queries on what engineers can do to alleviate pain and suffering. |
