...and it seems like so often the people who are at the greatest disadvantage to help themselves are the ones who take the brunt of nature's fury.
During the Katrina Hurricane disaster, Sun's Global Citizenship Team established a year-round disaster relief program with its partner, Aidmatrix.
Through the Aidmatrix web-based service, Sun employees, friends, family, partners---anyone---can make contributions to agencies that are generally the most capable of delivering resources directly to the need....not-withstanding military road-blocks. Ugh. :-(
If you're looking for a way to help people in the aftermath of a disaster---like the recent earthquake in China and the cyclone in Myanmar---our disater relief program through Aidmatrix provides an excellent option. Pick the amount you want to donate, then proceed to the check out page, where you can designate to which charity you want your donation to go from the pull-down menu.
