Is it working...?

Um- hello! My name is Cheria Barnes, and I've been here for a few months now. I'd meant to do this sooner, but with everything that's happened... Well, it seems like as best a time as any now.

Back home on Ephinea I lead a relief organization to help with the aftereffects of war. We ran food drives, helped with building repairs, gave first aid-- pretty much anything people needed of us that we could help with, you know?

So... I was thinking that I could start something like that up here too. For people that can't fight but still want to help. I thought it would probably be a good way to get the people here to trust us again too... Anyway, if you'd be interested, please let me know!

Thank you.

Um-- how did he say to turn it off again? [The feed is still live for a few minutes before she finally manages to turn it off.]

[It's been a week since she arrived. Enough time to get a sense of the situation; recovery is a struggle with no clear end in sight, organization borders on nonexistent, and fragile relations are threatening to collapse.

Enough time to put a name to words, and words to action.

This is about the best idea she's heard since her arrival, and it needs all the support it can get. So here's one senator, showing hers!]

It's an effort well worth our time, and the least we can do. [~~now come join her inevitable committee 8D~~]

[She's glad that people seem interested. It looks like it will be possible after all. She needs to start taking down names and doing some field work to see where they're needed most first. Figure out what the strengths are of the people helping, and lead them accordingly. This time around, it wasn't just people she'd grown up with helping, so it's a little daunting.]

That's what I thought too! I'm happy so many people want to help this way.
