Japan Relief Efforts
By The Editors
Dear Friends,
On March 11, Japan was hit by a devastating earthquake and tsunami, which has left thousands dead and many more in dire need of help. We are overcome with sadness as the scale of the damage increases with each day, and extend our condolences to all those affected by this disastrous event.
We understand that many of you would like to offer aid, but are perhaps overwhelmed by the numerous options available on- and offline. We recommend donating to the Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief of your local Red Cross chapter, but we have also put together a list of several other reputable relief agencies and donation projects for your consideration. Please help support the people of Japan in this time of crisis.
Thank you for keeping the people of Japan in your thoughts and prayers.
