Funny thing that sometimes orgs are so concerned by their own financial stability that they seem to tend to forget about individuals in their communities. I have an impression that some of orgs, although seeing a need of enhanced relief services, are scared to push funders and local authorities to get money which could support some of the much needed services. They are scared because it might affect their existing funding. For example, I would be very happy to join crusade for extra funding for supporting the homeless but, honestly, I don't see any of crusade. Especially on local level.
