Helping New Orleans Musicians

At IAJE Strings, Gayle Dixon has posted information on ways in which one can donate to relief for New Orleans musicians, many of whom have lost homes, instruments and equipment in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina:

Subj: Musician's Assistance
Date: 09/04/2005 5:54:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time

Two more great organizations to donate to:

New Orleans Musicians Clinic (NOMC)

This is a fantastic hands on organization which has the names and addresses of
so many great musicians because they have them all coming to their FREE health
clinic all these years, and now they are tracking down the local musicians and finding them shelter.

They can be contacted at musiciank@swlahec.com

They are the New Orleans Musicians Clinic and know the whereabouts of the
local musicians down there.
