This online-how-to-help Indonesia Eartquake is taken from a page of my friend who did a small research for people who want to help victims of Indonesia earthquake from a distance. Referring to what is written in her page Please forward to any potential donators, I am forwarding this to all of you who might be interested or who might extend this message.

Thanks for your fingers Mer and may all of us be blessed!


----------------------------------
I made this 'call' mainly for those who want to donate from outside Indonesia. Please forward to any potential donators.

The magnitude-6.3 quake hit Indonesia (Central Java) on Saturday, May 26, 2006, flattened many buildings and killing more than 5,000 people. This nation's worst disaster since the 2004 tsunami also wounded thousands more. Hundreds of thousands are displaced. They need medical assistance, food, clean water, and shelters.

How you can help?

You can help the earthquake victims by making a financial donation to any of the following charities below.

I have done a small research and found out that these are established and trusted organizations. Those located in the US are registered as public charity with 501 (c) (3) status. All of them have specifically appealed for donation for Indonesian Earthquake of May 2006.
