There are many organizations working on disaster relief. Here’s some links to organizations to consider:

American Friends Service Committee

Building on AFSC programs and contacts in Asia, AFSC will help provide relief and longer-term recovery, particularly to those who might be overlooked by other agencies or relief programs.

Network for Good

People across Southeast Asia who have been stricken by the tsunami disaster need your help to recover and rebuild — many have lost everything. Please join millions of other generous Americans and support one or many of the important relief organizations (on their web site) with a safe and easy contribution now. Your cash contributions are desperately needed and will provide assistance to those whose lives have been devastated by this terrible disaster.

International Red Cross/Red Crescent

The International Federation has launched an appeal for 67 million Swiss francs to help victims of the devastating tidal waves that hit south and east Asia on December 26 — its largest emergency operation in decades. The disaster left at least 130,000 people dead, hundreds of thousands injured, and more than one million displaced.

UNICEF

Tsunami Crisis: Help UNICEF Respond. Hundreds of thousands of children are at risk from the tsunamis that devastated coastal regions across South Asia on December 26.

Oxfam

Oxfam and its partners responded immediately by distributing food, temporary shelter, and clean water in Sri Lanka. In Indonesia, we will soon be providing much-needed water and sanitation. Oxfam teams are busy assessing needs in India and other countries affected.

AmeriCares

AmeriCares is preparing emergency relief flights that will focus on bringing medicines and medical supplies, water purification treatments, and other types of assistance to the affected areas.

Doctors Without Borders is currently the preferred charitable partner of Small Dog Computers. While I repsect them as a company, and have done business with them, this is not an advertisement for them. However if you click on the link below, they will match your donations to Doctors Without Borders through their charitable giving program.
