The South Asian tsunami is one of the most devastating
natural disasters in years, with millions left homeless
and in desperate need of aid. We are deeply saddened by
the tragic loss of life and suffering that has occurred
as a result of this disaster. Please support either the
American Red Cross (via Amazon.com) or the American Jewish
World Service so that they can help victims throughout
the region.

From Amazon.com:
At least 120,000 people have lost their lives in
East Africa and South Asia in the aftermath of the
earthquake and resulting tsunamis on December 26.
Thousands of people in Sri Lanka, India, Thailand,
and Indonesia are still missing; many others have
lost their homes and livelihoods. Sri Lanka and
Indonesia suffered the highest number of deaths,
but India, East Africa, Seychelles, Maldives, and
Thailand were all affected by the tsunami waves,
which reached as high as 20 feet. Aid workers and
volunteers are focused on stopping the spread of
disease and delivering food and drinking water to
survivors. The American Red Cross reports that emergency
assessment and first-aid teams were on the ground
quickly and are already working with local groups
to support relief efforts. Your financial donation
will help provide medicine, clothing, food, and
shelter for victims of the East Africa and South
Asia earthquake and tsunami disaster. One hundred
percent of your donation will go to the American
Red Cross. Thanks in advance for your participation
during this critical time. The American Red Cross
name is used with its permission. For more information
