Charity drive resources, courtesy of THE INTERNET (Tsunami Relief - Japan)!
Odin:
This is for whomever among you have been watching the news and feeling all helpless and wanting to help out, but don't know how (you can donate money to charities trying to help out over there!).
Myself and many others donated through the Red Cross but here's a list of well known and reliable charities, just to make things easier for everyone so nobody has to worry about paying scammers. Check them all out and donate to whichever one (or multiple) charity you believe your money will do the most good with.
The Red Cross
AmeriCares
CARE
Direct Relief
Global Giving
Search Dog Foundation
Doctors Without Borders/MSF
UNICEF
Google Crisis Response DONATE DIRECTLY TO JAPAN
Some Red Cross links for people that don't live in the US.
Australian Red Cross
Doctors Without Borders/MSF Canada
British Red Cross
Danish Red Cross
Swedish Red Cross
German Red Cross
Irish Red Cross
You can also donate to the Red Cross using iTunes somehow. I assume this involves some form of black magic.
Living Social will match all $5 donations, turning your $5 donation into $10
CHECK WITH YOUR JOB AND/OR BANK BECAUSE THEY MIGHT MATCH YOUR DONATION!
DO NOT DONATE TO THE UNITED WAY! Click here to read the Hurricane Katrina fiasco
Okay, go!

Thanks for the info, though this should be stickied in General Discussion.
Odin:
Maybe a mod can move the thread over there?

This topic has been moved here, because it is not particularly appropriate in the discussion forum - and so that it can be seen by those who can't see the discussion forum because they don't have a high-enough post count.
philharmonic:
Sounds good. Anyway I've organized a fundraiser to benefit the Canadian Red Cross and its Japan Earthquake - Asia Pacific Tsunami Response. I'll post a link to my webpage when its up and running.
