At halftime in a high school football championship, three American Samoan NFL football players presented $50,000 to the American Samoan Red Cross because of the recent earthquake and tsunami disaster. Vaitoa Hans A. Langkilde, a board member of the local Red Cross, left, received the envelope from Gabe Reid, a former tight end for the Chicago Bears, right. Looking on are Reno Mahe, former Philadelphia Eagles running back, next to Langkilde, and Fa'a Ifo Pili, former Philadelphia Eagles lineman. In accepting the contribution, Langkilde acknowledged the Red Cross partnership with FEMA and the Small Business Administration in disaster response and recovery. Richard O'Reilly/FEMA
