The money was donated by several dozen members of FSMA and included a corporate matching donation by FSMA, the association announced today.
Rick Abraham, FSMA's ceo, commented: "We feel for all the victims of Hurricane Katrina, and wanted to help in any way we could. Our members responded generously to the appeal we made for aid, and our board of directors also approved a matching contribution directly from FSMA. We are very pleased we can help those less fortunate than us, and are proud to help in a small way."
