Dear All,

Namaste.

 

Sri Ramakrishna Math in Chennai already launched its

primary relief programmes for the affected people in

Chennai and in deep South. You may directly pay to

the Math thro www.sriramakrishnamath.org. Enter the

purpose of the donation in the remarks column there.

You may also, if you wish so, make your offering in

kind, like food, clothing, medical help etc.

 

 

Jeeva Seva is Shiva Seva.

 

-With love,

Sriram.

You may also try this site:

 

http://www.amma.org/humanitarian-activities/get-involved/tsunami.html

 

At the bottom of the page is a secure link for online contribution:

https://www.mothersbooks.org/donations/make-a-donation.html

 

This site belongs to Mata Amritanandamayi's official website in the

US.

 

I do not have exact statistics, but I strongly believe that more

than 95% of the contributions to this site go for actual help rather

than the overheads that international organizations generally have.

 

If you see the link, it has many charities that Amma is involved in.

Topping the list currently is the relief fund for the tsunami

victims. Let me also share that during the Gujarat Earthquake, She

sponsored the rehabiliation of 3 entire villages single-handedly!

So, all this to say that money sent here will not create any

misgivings in you, I am sure!

 

Amme sharanam!

Be aware that contributions to the Red Cross cannot be directed to

specified geographic locations and that their administrative overhead

is very high. They also do not have long-term solutions for issues.

Contributions to The Hindu's fund are sent to the PM relief fund and

from past experience they have no transparency in operations and no

guarantee that the money will reach the intended recipients since it

goes through a large bureaucratic organization.

 

Please consider donating to the Sri Ramakrishna Math

(http://www.sriramakrishnamath.org/news/tsunami.shtml) or other

organizations such as VIDE (http://www.vide-us.org/appeal.htm) or

AID (http://www.sulekha.com/aidtsunami/)

 

Best Regards,

 

Girish
