Well, I think I can tell you why United Way won't give info out ...
I donate primarily to the Red Cross, since they're so widespread and visible, have low overhead, and are honest and reputable. One of my friends did Katrina relief with Hands on USA, a small group that is currently working on rebuilding on the Mississippi coast. They're a small, honest organization without the bureacracy of big organizations.
