How You Can Help!

One of the best things you can do to help, if you live in the United States, is to simply give blood.
Contact your local chapter of the American Red Cross for more information (Check the white pages of your local telephone directory).

You can also contribute on-line via credit card to the American Red Cross.
On their site, you can find more ways on how to help.

American Red Cross

If you live outside the USA, the most direct way to donate is through the International Foundation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. Your donations (in any currency you use) will be automatically converted into USA dollars and placed in their accounts. There is no processing fee or postage required.

Another charity helping those in need is the Salvation Army, a branch of the Salvationist Church of America. While they mainly help the homeless, drug addicted and chronicly alcoholic, they also come to the aid of those in need in a disaster. In this situation, they have sprung into action, and will gladly accept your donations.
