#ondoy and #ketsana red cross appeal

Tags: fundraiser, ketsana, ondoy, philippines, red cross, vietnam

On 26th September 2009, the Philippines and Vietnam were hit by devestating typhoons, causing flooding, leaving many dead and others homeless.

The situation is desperate and Red Cross are calling for your support.

Here’s how you can help:

Australians can donate via Red Cross Australia.
Americans can donate via American Red Cross
Or donate directly to Red Cross Philippines

If you’re not in a position to contribute financially, you can also volunteer (or starve a vampire and find a blood drive in your area).

To find out more, check out your local Red Cross.

Thanking you in advance for your support.

ps. Thx to @helloluis for use of your images and for keeping me up to date.
