This has globally shocked millions, billions, the news that so far, 59,000 people have died and hundreds of thousands more people are lost as a result of the devastating South Asian tsunamis.
Our thoughts & prayers go out to all who've lost friends & family, all who are out there giving relief, all who are lost or dead and all the people still out there, caught or trapped because of the disaster.
In this thread, you can share your thoughts, prayers & wishes for those who you know to be Asia at this time, or just for the safety of all who live there.
The following are charitable organisations which are raising funds for the relief of those caught out by the tsunami. Please, if you, donate a little, as every bit helps. As we speak, the UN are sending out relief to 4/5 of the worst affected countries but every penny/cent given, counts.
If you know of any other organisations, please give them a mention too.
The Penang Office of Human Development is asking for volunteer help Oxfam (UK) -- please use the 'gift aid' facility otherwise your donation will have tax taken off it (appalling I know, but it happens.)
Oxfam (America) British Red Cross American Red Cross International Red Cross International Rescue Corps Give.org Doctors without Borders American Friends Service Commitee Care Mercy Corps
We also hope & pray that Kurisuchiina (Christina), a former Admin at SnitchSeeker, who is on holiday in Sri Lanka at the moment, stays safe and gets home safely.
