On this, the 21st anniversary of
our nations worst natural disaster,
I want to take this opportunity to extend my prayers and blessings
to all who were affected by this American tragedy.
Also, I offer my prayers to the victims of recent natural disasters in 2026.
European Heatwaves: Successive extreme heat waves across Europe caused at least 35,000 excess deaths.
Venezuela Earthquakes: Major earthquakes struck Venezuela, killing 6,509 people in the deadliest sudden-onset event of the year.
Nepal–Tibet Floods: Severe flash floods along the Nepal-China border left at least 165 people dead with nearly 1,500 missing.
Colombia Earthquake: An August earthquake in Colombia claimed 331 lives.
Maysak: Typhoon Maysak resulted in 159 deaths in China (and over 171 total across affected areas).
January North American Winter Storm: Severe winter weather across the central and eastern U.S. led to 174 fatalities.
Kenya Floods: Heavy seasonal rains and flooding in Kenya caused 112 reported deaths.
These natural disasters are just a reminder that humans are not taking care of our planet and we better start doing something about it now before it's too late. Greedy billionaires are destroying our planet. Stand up to them now.
Thank you to the over 5 million people who have visited this
tribute. Thank you to the over 4,000 emails and millions of dollars
this site has raised through national and local charities over the
months and years after Katrina. I have met hundreds of people over the
years affected by Katrina. Many of
whom have been kind to me in helping me help others. The list would
be too long to mention but I love you all and thank you from the
bottom of my heart. This has been a life altering experience for me
personally and one I will always hold dear to my heart.
Finally, to everyone from all over the world and especially in the
United States who have given their blood, sweat and tears to help
the people of the Gulf Coast, you are all heroes and I stand up and
applaud you all for your hard work.
Let us not forget the ones who have perished as a result of
Katrina and in their names build stronger levees, race relations,
policies and remember we are all one people.
God bless and One (1) Love, Gary Sloate
