Donation For Japan Tsunami and Earthquake


The first thing on most people's mind after hearing the news of a disaster like the earthquake in Japan is, What can I do to help?
Even if you're thousands of miles away, there are ways that you can offer support to the earthquake and tsunami relief effort in Japan. Here are a few of them:


Red Cross: The Japanese Red Cross has already deployed 11 disaster-response teams, but you can support the organization by donating money. Similar to its efforts in the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake, the Red Cross is accepting donations online or via text message. Text REDCROSS to 90999 to donate $10 from your phone (you'll be prompted to confirm with a second text reading YES).

ShelterBox: The U.K.-based organization, with 18 international affiliates, has launched an online fundraiser for the Japan relief effort. ShelterBox provides assistance to afflicted countries by delivering large utility boxes that contain a shelter and other emergency-relief tools. To give, go to your country's page and click "Donate."

International Medical Corps: To give to this global nonprofit's emergency-response fund, go to its site, fill in your information and select the amount you wish to donate (be sure to note if you want your donation to be a "recurring gift" for future relief efforts).

And much more...

One of the them is charity event that has been held in Ubud - Bali, by the Japanese community that cooperated with Ubud local peoples. The charity was run very smoothly and all the donator was very enthusiastic.
The  committee is also made a few of souvenir so the donator could buy it for donating, one of them is "HOPE T-shirts" which is quite unique and reflect how Bali is also care for the tsunami and earthquake victims in Japan.
