Posted by RCLady on 12/30/2004, 3:32 pm Make a difference by contributing to the American Red Cross There are many ways to donate: Call 1-800-HELPNOW or 1-800-257-7575 (Espaņol) to make a donation by phone Your designated financial gift to the American Red Cross International Response Fund will help victims of the earthquake and tsunami emergency in Southern Asia and provide immediate and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance, and other support to those in need. Financial contributions allow us to support the greatest needs in the most efficient manner since they can be used to purchase items locally in the region and eliminate the added costs involved in transporting goods. They also allow the purchase of culturally appropriate items in the country and stimulate the devastated economy. In-kind Donations In-kind donations such as clothing and food have hidden costs since they require valuable and scarce resources such as time, money, and personnel to sort, clean, and distribute them, which come at the expense of the emergency activities relief workers are attempting to perform. Please understand that although your generosity is sincerely appreciated, the American Red Cross is unable to accept used clothing, hygiene items, furniture, toys, blankets, and canned goods. The most effective way to help the relief effort is through a financial contribution.
