I can house a family from NO of 4,5,6 with a pet

I have free air miles to fly them into Bangor, Maine. Can someone help me to coordinate this?

4. Here's contact info for a LA Dem staffer who's helping several

families. See this thread and why don't you contact him. I talked to his wife when I helped and she was very thankful. Maybe you could host one of the families housed in the hotel.

5. From the Houston Chronicle, this may help

• Operation: Share Your Home is an organization founded in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina hit. Its purpose is to match people willing to share their homes with evacuees who need temporary shelter. Visit the Web site or call 1-888-827-2525 for information. The nonprofit organization is getting calls from all over the United States and Canada. While calls are steady, its phone lines are not jammed "like we would like for them to be," said volunteer Erica Adams said.
