I would like to make a $100 contribution for the Tsunami disaster.
However, I don't know where to send me check? After the "911 WTC" disaster Bill O'Reilly (FOX News) investigated many of the big charities and found they didn't pass along ALL of the money that was collected! If anyone else is thing about donating, let us know how you plan to do so. This disaster is so large and I feel like I should do something! Tim |

List of organizations accepting donations.
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...764a1a0cc06cbb Most charities have operating costs that also have to be met. Take a look at their sites and most will tell you what percentage of donations goes to what. Then you can choose what you feel is the best. |

Tim International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies PO Box 372 CH-1211 Geneva 19 Switzerland 41-22-730-4222 http://www.ifrc.org It looks like these guys are the least likely to have a political or religious agenda. At least they will respect that most of the victims and survivors are Muslim and not try to "witness" to them or some other similar abomination. Anyway, this is who I am donating to.

They scan a special bar code when you tell them how much you are donating. That outfit is big enough that I don't think they need to steal any of the money. mike |
