Wednesday, November 07, 2001 1:38 AM Sept 11th victim's fund Dear Bill, regarding the funds that were collected. I hear about the Red Cross screw up, what about the United Way? That's where I sent my money. As far as distribution, why can't a large financial accounting firm be brought in, work with a large bank-Chase Manhattan or Bank of America? Assist in setting up bank accounts for the victims. Assign 5 different areas of New York. Divide names A-G and H-L etc. No one branch or office would be overwhelmed. Have victims bring in past pay checks, pension information, death certificates for proof of spouse salaries. Then set up Trust funds with banks for whatever amounts their entitled to. Give each victim certain amount up front, for example: $5,000.00 - $10,000.00 then have a montly check sent to family each month after. Have bank oversee operation with financial firm and United Way or Red Cross. All that money would earn a lot of interest as well. Those organizations seem all confused about how to handle the situation. There's one possible solution that may work. Your a very powerful man, a lot of people listen and respect you including myself. Maybe these organizations could keep you informed each week or so with the results that have been made and you could pass it on to all the American's who generously gave. Thanks for all your good work and defending all whats good and right in America Individual Comment San Diego, CA September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written. 2001-11-07 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
