Bloggers (led by Glenn Reynolds and Hugh Hewitt, and NZ Bear) have collectively organized a Blog for Relief Day, where participating blogs join by indicating the charities they recommend readers make aid donations through.
Ours are simple...
If you're looking to support a wide range of efforts, give via American Red Cross.
If you'd like a more micro-charity approach; donate to Wizbang's own homeless and self-(un)employed co-author Paul. Details on how to give to Paul are available here. He explains what he will be doing with funds raised in this comment.
If you're looking to donate time doing research and writing on relief, sign-up to post at HurricAid.com.
Those our just our suggestions. InstaPundit has a long list of other blogger suggested charities.
Update: TTLB is keeping track of contributions. If you donated to Paul there's an option to record that contribution.

Kudos on your efforts to bring relief to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. There is another way bloggers and other thoughtful people can help:
I have opened forums at www.DisasterReliefIdeas.org for the discussion of ideas to aid disaster relief in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. I am not soliciting donations, only ideas. Experts in aspects of disaster relief (housing, healthcare, rebuilding, etc.) are also able to rate these ideas, giving us a means of identifying the most promising ones, which will be shared with disaster relief professionals and persons in authority. Please help our society by contributing your ideas, especially if you are unable to contribute financially to relief efforts.
