Check out the latest news. They're one step away from a forced evacuation of New Orleans. I'd suggest that a drive-in-and-help-out mission would be effective for other coastal communities where no such evacation is in effect.

Meanwhile, my wife had a great idea for how we can help out, once things settle down. She teaches communication and presentation skills. That includes resume writing and mock interviews. I can round up undergrads with computers and printers to help out. Hopefully, we can help set up some of the Houston refugees with jobs.
