Please give what you can.
I hope everyone who reads this will decide (or has already decided) to donate to your favorite reputable charity (Red Cross, Salvation Army, etc). Please stay away from telemarketer donations, and unknown funds and things like that. Stick to the ones you've heard of. I know a lot of you are highschool/college students but give whatever you possibly can. Just think what a difference it would make if everyone in this nation were to donate $10. Even $5. Nobody is asking you to donate millions, just give what you can.



Babies are dying. Babies have died. Simply from not having formula to keep them fed.



Elderly are dying b/c they cannot get water. There is nowhere to put their bodies so they are being left covered by a blanket in the sweletering humidity up against walls and backed into corners.

What these people need so badly are simple things that we all take for granted, they need money to get these things. Donate now. Don't wait for the telethons. Donate now while you're thinking about it.

I was so glad to see you posted this. I donated to the Red Cross last night after watching nearly two hours of footage of all the destruction. It's heartbreaking. And you're right... you don't need to donate a ton of money. A lot of people think, "Well, I couldn't donate more than X dollars, so what's the point, that's not going to help." At this point, if everyone in the nation were to donate even just $1, it would be helpful.
