URGENT: Earthquake Survivors Need Your Help

I hope everyone had safe and happy holiday celebrations...

At this writing, more than 150,000 people are dead and thousands more are still missing after a violent undersea earthquake unleashed a twenty-foot high wall of water that rushed into coastal towns in southern Asia, destroying entire villages and carrying people, homes, and livestock. Hardest hit was Sri Lanka where nearly 15,500 people perished and over a million left homeless. The quake also affected Southern India, Sumatra, Thailand, Bangladesh, Burma, Malaysia and the Maldives.

More trouble is expected as waters recede, leaving disease and destruction and critical shortages of essential items.
