How much should I donate to the Tsunami crisis? |
|
I've just started living hand to mouth because of...well, lots of reasons. But I'm still much better off than the people living in regions affected by the tsunami.
What percentage of my income would be a good, reasonable amount to spend helping. I want to do this.

8. And that'll be fine too...because the need won't go away in a week. |
|
But the attention, unfortunately, will.

It doesn't have to be a king's ransom in order to do some good.

people make the mistake of thinking 5, 10, 20, bucks doesn't matter - but it's the fact that hundreds and thousands of people are donating those small amounts that MAKES it work.

7. Well, whatever you donated to 9/11 x 33 would be about proportionate... |
|
...to the number of people lost.
Something to think about when contemplating *'s non-response.
