Yesterday was the second anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's arrival in New Orleans. As the news reports, and our own team at Blogging New Orleans showed, the work to repair the city is far from over. Anne-Dale Jeweller, which is based in Mandeville, La., has created a collection of jewelry to benefit those affected by Hurricane Katrina. The collection includes badges, rings, earrings and pendants available in both silver and 14K gold that bear statements of support such as "I Know What It Means to Love New Orleans," "Pray for the Gulf Coast" and "Return to New Orleans." A portion of the proceeds go to a variety of charities and relief efforts. So far they have raised more than $170,000. The badge shown here in 14K gold sells for $399.95.
