It was truly a disaster of an unfathomable magnitude. I hope some or all of us are able and willing to help the victims in any way possible. Given the urgent need RIGHT now, I think the better idea would have been to urge Sajhaites to donate directly to various relief agencies, rather than having to wait for donations into Sajha fund and then transfering it to other organizations. Nevertheless, since the account has now already been created, I hope many of us will have a heart to feel for the victims and donate whatever one can to the fund. I am sure the relief agencies will be needing fiancial donations well into the future. As for myself, I have already given to OXFAM, a British-based international relief agency. They have a link in their homepage for those who wish to make donations specifically for the Asian Tsunami disaster. (www.oxfam.org) Along with the Red Cross International and various UN agencies, I think there are dozens of other smaller NGOs that are also looking forward to hearing from us with cash. I pray for the victimized souls, both dead and alive.
