I donated yesterday. With a disaster of this event affecting so many people and families, it's the least we can do.

I donated yesterday too.

Come on, the rest of you, get moving.

I donated yesterday, and I'm asking for donations in lieu of gifts for my upcoming birthday. They're going to need billions!

I donated at Amazon - I was looking for a PayPal enabled site, but Amazon was equally easy since they already had my info. Their setup goes towards the American Red Cross and their efforts toward the tsunami aftermath.

Only $10, but if enough of us do that it can really add up.

Thanks, Eric - and Melanie and the others, too... you're right - if we all donate, it will add up quickly. TIB gets around 50,000 visitors a week - we could quickly bring about hundreds of thousands of dollars to the relief efforts.

Contributed to Oxfam America's Earthquake and Tsumnami Relief fund. The magnitude and scope of this disaster is incomprehensible. Anything this region can get will help.

I donated to the Canadian Red Cross yesterday, online. Took me several tries to get through to their server, which I take as a good sign!

I donated to Amazon.com (they have my info).

Over 120,000 dead, WOW.

I'm giving to UNICEF. I do so every year in lieu of Christmas shopping madness, but I'm doubling the original intended amount because of this disaster.

mark ... thank you for inspiring your audience to help ... a great example of how the internet can spread ideas for good

i gave here:

question: what can we all do to encourage our country to act as a great peacetime force for good ... to send the national guard ... army engineers ... marines ... to build roads, carry food and water ... to act in this time of epic crisis in a mode of epic good ... to add a footnote to history that when the world cried for help we answered

Donated to the Canadian Red Cross yesturday. They are up to $26 million. Private donations are at $65 million in Canada overall and the government has promised matching donations. Someone called CARE Canada yesturday and donated $500,000. Pretty amazing. It also shows the power of 'the people' and the internet since I imagine that many of these donations are being done online.

I donated.

Really, even 10$ makes a difference. With currency exchanges and the way they live, they spent less than that a day (quite a contrast considering we spend twice that on the average meal, basically).

I found a list on the internet of A LOT of charities, organized by the countries they operate in, and has info on how to contact each charity. So....if you want to sperad your donation around....this is the place.

Thanks to Ilan and everyone who donated!

I'm working on winning the lottery. Whereupon I shall purchase a ticket to Southeast Asia and commence building homes.

If that fails I'll settle for donating.

MinkOWar,

I found your comment rude and unsettling. If you think millions of people dieng is funny, then get off this website.

P.S. I donated half of my savings, [1,000,000] to the tsunami relief, lets keep those donations going!
