Microdonations to Japan

[asterroc]

If you can't give big, give small.

• Text REDCROSS to 90999 to donate $10 to the American Red Cross
  
• Shop Amazon using this link to donate 4%+ to Mercy Corps. (Mercy Corps gets a referral bonus of at least 4%, depending upon how much you spend.)

If you have other good links for small donations, let me know and I'll add them.

And if you can't give small, pass this information on.

On the subject of charity evaluation, I'm compelled to promote GiveWell. For better or for worse, they actually have discouraging things to say about contributing to the relief effort in Japan.

I'd never heard of GiveWell. Thanks! And they do have a point....And of course, there's always this influx of giving and goodwill as soon as a disaster happens, and then we all go back to our usual routines after a short period of time.
