The American Red Cross, using Web technology developed for it by Microsoft, has launched an online network to help unite loved ones with survivors of the September 11 terrorist attacks. The Family Registration Web at http://www.redcross.org/ enables those impacted by the tragedy to self-register with the Red Cross, helping the agency respond to the more than 6,700 inquiries it has so far received from concerned friends and family nationwide.Microsoft’s support for the Family Registration Web is part of its pledge of US$10 million to support relief and recovery efforts. The company has donated $5 million in cash to the September 11th Fund established by The United Way of New York City and New York Community Trust, and is also providing $5 million in technical services and software to the recovery efforts and organizations serving people in the affected area. To contribute to the September 11th Fund – created to provide immediate and longer-term assistance to the victims, their families, and communities affected by the attacks – please send financial donations to the United Way September 11th Fund, 2 Park Avenue, New York, NY, 10016.
