My friends, I’m sure you’ve all seen and heard about the terrible devastation caused by Typhoon Haiyan.
The NYT has a stark page of images – one from each day. News is coming in that the death toll might be much less than the early estimate of 10,000, which of course is good news, but the problem is there is such great need now.
I was wondering – what do you think of switching the focus of SMSG from Love 146 to typhoon relief/aid? I’d go with Save the Children we’ve given to them before, and they’re one of the organizations already on the ground helping.
What do you think? Any objections?
I’d especially like to hear from people who have donated already. If you have an opinion, let me know. I’m more than happy to split it up – or I might go $300/Love 146, $300/Save the Children.
Let me know please. Thank you <3
no objections
I don’t mind the switch at all, but I do like the split donation too so we won’t feel bad for choosing one over the other. 🙂
I think it’s a good idea, Lime! I am okay with the split, or put it all toward Save the Children.
It’s all so sad!
Thank you for what you are doing!
I think switching is a fine idea, and I think splitting the funds between the two causes is a great compromise.
