Probably the only ones I can think of other than churches are:
Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity
I know many denominations still have relief crews providing shelter, food, medical, etc. help to the homeless in Mississippi and Lousiana.
They are doing the work that FEMA just can't handle by itself. Also, Faith Based organization have a better record of getting food, shelter and help to the needy with less overhead and red tape. There is no establishment of religion going on, in fact there are strict guidelines prohibiting the such.
Our ministerial association here in Ellensburg received a grant from FEMA for putting up stranded travelers and helping them with food, we had to make out detailed reports on our activities. There was no preaching, etc. Just practical help. That has been going on for years. All the Churches participated Liberal and Conservative in theology. In Bush's administration the funding trickled down to almost nothing so we haven't applied for a grant in several years, plus we didn't like the "strings" attached by having to do all that reporting so we no longer do it.
But Faith Based Organizations can do great things, less overhead, and make the money stretch further. Why not use them if they follow the guide lines?
