It's not hard to spend hours reading up on the most recent reports of how relief efforts are going or watching the videos and looking at the pictures from the 9.0 (which was recently upgraded from a 8.9) earthquake and the massive tsunami that struck Japan last week. It's unimaginable seeing all the destruction and the the utterly shocking loss of life as villages have been wiped off the map.
There's a huge relief efforts happening world wide and I wanted to take a moment to spotlight some of these organizations. I've included the links that go directly to each site's donations link. If you know of other organizations not listed, please feel free to list them in the comments.
Other sites include-
* UNICEF
Authors who are helping-
You can read a great site here on The Huffington Post about other organizations who are helping in the aid to send relief to Japan.
We know there's been a lot of recent natural disasters that have caused havoc, claimed lives and caused a lot of destruction world wide. We are mindful to them and many of the organizations above are taking donations for relief efforts for those countries as well. We are keeping those who have been effected world wide in our thoughts and prayers.
