Twice the need for Humanitarian Assistance Chile & Haiti

 It is hard to know how to help when you can't go to far away places when disaster happens. Organizations are extending help in the form of rescue efforts, medical assistance, clean up efforts, reconstruction. All of these organizations need money for supplies, transportation and shipping beyond the physical hands-on assistance of capable and willing bodies. I have listed several below and encourage those who can give to be generous.

In response to the massive 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile, nonprofits are working on relief efforts. The same organizations are still scrambling to meet the needs in Haiti.
