The architectural firm I work for is involved some with activities at the Astrodome here in Houston. We just received word this morning that about 25,000 people are being bussed from the New Orleans area to the Astrodome for shelter. The Astrodome's schedule of events was cleared until December for this purpose! We are currently organizing an emergency relief drive to collect items such as blankets, towels, toiletries, clothing, etc. for the people who will be making the dome their home for possibly the next three months. If any of your chapters are interested in organizing a drive of your own for these folks, I'd be happy to help you find out some contact information.
