RSS Blog FeedWays to Join the Effort to Locate and Match Missing Persons
Posted at 6:56 PM, Sep. 5, 2005
Hi -
I am working on a project with a group called Life List out of California - they send out names of folks who are missing and the contact person who is seeking them - you search all the current databases to try to find the name of the missing person. Then you can either contact the "seeker" or you can contact Life List and they will relay the message. Other e-pro's might want to add their talents to this cause. I can tell you it is not easy - there are lots of lists out there. If you are interested in volunteering - here is the website:
http://www.lifelist.us.
In the process of searching for survivor names, I found a site that is trying to consolidate all the data into a huge database. http://www.katrinaproject.com. They have banners available to post on websites at this location:

Blogmaster Commentary: Great example of a REALTOR AT WORK! These are two more ways people can help, no matter where you live! Kathie makes an important point, there are "lots of list out there". Thinkers and volunteers like Kathie will need to be called on when it is time to share thoughts re a better approach 'cause the time wasted searching all these list could be spent making matches on a centralized list. Kathie, thanks and we'd love to hear of our progress.
