I just wanted to take up a bit of space here on AikiWeb to send out a call for your help in assisting those in need from the recent tsunami disaster in Southeast Asia. Your cash donations to disaster relief organizations will help those directly affected by the disaster, so if you have anything that you can spare, please don't hesitate to do so. There are lists of organizations accepting donations
here,
here, and
here .
AikiWeb is also collecting donations which will be sent to the American Red Cross, starting out with US$500 from AikiWeb itself. Please read everything on the AikiWeb donation page before donating, though, as donating directly to organizations may be more cost effective. Here is the
AikiWeb Tsunami Disaster Relief page. Lastly, here is the
AikiWeb Forums thread on the disaster. My heart goes out to everyone affected by this disaster.
