Any member may carry a non-affiliate link to a genuine donation site in his/her sig - check and make sure that any link you use is a well-respected, established and genuine charity - we all know that some scum will try to profit from the misery of these unfortunate people.

Nations leaders pledge $4 billion at Jakarta Summit - UN says pledges need to be turned into cash quickly to provide help in time.

Amid warnings from health officials that outbreaks of disease could soon double the 150,000 death toll, Annan exhorted countries that have pledged more than $4 billion in aid to come forward immediately with nearly a billion dollars in cash.

Annan’s appeal followed an assessment by the WHO that survivors could succumb to cholera and dysentery unless they received clean water and other basic services by the end of the week.
