South Asia Tsunami Disaster

The news and the images of the disaster victims from Sri Lanka, India, Malaysia, and the other affected nations make our problems seem small by comparison. I spent some time looking at the images and reading stories about this last night with my wife at the New York Times site. There are some good graphics and moving images along with the news stories. It is very sad and it made us want to do what we could to help. As I write this, the number of dead is being reported at 70,000 and still climbing.

Unfortunately the only thing most of us can do now is to contribute money to help. There are a lot of good organizations out there helping these victims. If you or someone you know wants to make a donation, click here to see a list of groups accepting donations.
