For the complete list of countries that are donating money/supplies, click here.
Here are a few notable ones:
Germany said it would offer aid or money if requested by Washington.
Sri Lanka, still recovering from the tsunami disaster, pledged $25,000 to the American Red Cross.
Australia said it would donate $7.7 million immediately to the American Red Cross.
Japan donated $200,000 to the Red Cross and would also provide up to $300,000 in aid supplies.
The Vatican sent a telegram to say that Pope Benedict XVI was "deeply saddened" by the disaster and that he was praying for the victims and rescuers.
C'mon Pope! Open up the wallet a little. Who needs any more prayers when Britney Spears is already doing that.
And for me, I spent the whole morning watching TV coverage on Katrina, donated some money on amazon, and applied for a loan to fill up my gas.
