[MPWG] New Orleans Free Clinics and Herbalists

[Stiki Niki]

Hello All

I wrote this article to try to share my excitement about the clinics in New 
Orleans.  I am sending it to my extended network to try to raise 
support(herb donations, practitioner support, and funding) for the 
herbalists there.  There is so much potential for this to become a model 
that other parts of the country could work with.  Just think that such a 
tragic event could foster such a beautiful response!
Please read the article and forward to those you may feel would be 
interested in donating.  I just received an updated list of needs from my 
friends there.
