There are many organizations actively helping people involved in disasters

across the globe and the victims of the earthquake in India as well. For

those in the U.S. who are not familiar with all such organizations and their

work and are wondering to whom the appropriate donations should be sent, the

"American Red Cross" is a good choice. They have a special International

Response Fund geared towards helping people internationally and are usually

among some of the first organizations to mobilize resources and become

active in the affected area of the world. They also have local chapters

across the U.S. to help the local communities as well.

 

American Red Cross website states the following:

 

"The best way to help disaster victims is through a financial donation to

the American Red Cross. A financial contribution allows disaster victims to

quickly obtain basic necessities for themselves and their families, while

stimulating the disaster-affected local economy."

 

"Contributions to the American Red Cross, a tax-exempt organization under

Section 501©(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, are deductible for computing

income and estate taxes."

 

 

I would like to encourage you (especially those in the U.S.) to go to

American Red Cross website and learn more about this organization and to see

how you can help.

Love to all
