The lingering impact of the L'Aquila earthquake remains on my mind. If you're interested in helping the people of L'Aquila and in the surrounding small hill villages where many elderly live, then here's a good resource to learn ways to help affected L'Aquila's earthquake victims. www.lifeinabruzzo.com/donate-help-laquila-earthquake-victims/
The SLOW FOOD MOVEMENT also established a dedicated appeal so that farmers in these villages receive needed food in the mountain areas surrounding L'Aquila. Their form is in Italian, so for non-Italian speakers you can donate via Global Giving with a form in English; funds go directly to Slow Food Movement.

Sill so sad. My favorite story is about the elder lady who continued to crochet or knit (the report varies) while waiting to be rescued. Then she wanted to brush her hair before being interviewed on TV.... ah, Italians and their sense of style!
I hate to see bad things happen to people in Italy. The recent helicopter crash with Italian tourists in NYC was so sad!
