My God!

With an expected death toll of 200,000, more injured and sick, and literally
*millions* homeless, this is the worst of the worst disasters.

Your contribution now will go a long way in that region of the world. It
may go toward food or shelter or antibiotics that save several orphaned
children's lives.

Direct Relief International is one of the organizations helping the hundreds
of thousands of Tsunami victims. I recommend donating through them, as they
are highly respected and received a 100% efficiency rating by Forbes: Less
than 1% of the money they receive goes toward administrative and advertising
costs. Additionally, they have corporate sponsors who match contributions
by private individuals: "In 2003, Direct Relief International was able to
deliver $3,400 in medical aid for every $100 donated!"

Here's the link to their online donation page. If you can spare a small
contribution this holiday season, please consider donating to them
today--the sooner the better. And please encourage others to do so as well.
(Pass this on in email if you like.)
