My favorite is Americares mainly because they use 98% of the donations towards their programs and keep overhead under 2%. americares.org They don't have a special page set up for the India earthquake but you can write "India" on your check if you like to make a donation by check. If you want to make an online donation with them, you can put India in the comments section. tushar

OT RE: "What is a reliable organization to donate some money to?" Hi Kushi, If you work for Intel, donating via Intel would be the best way to go. If you work for Cisco, donating via Cisco would be best. Cisco is matching 2:1. If you don't work for either company, I would suggest Red Cross (and write "India" on it) just because they seem to be major coordinators on this. They are also finally getting some portable hospital units and will be setting up the world's largest-ever portable hospital unit over there shortly. For folks that don't have cash to donate, but may have extra clothes they could give, I would suggest either the Red Cross or ask Goodwill Industries (my sister works at Goodwill). Red Cross will take canned food too. Regards, Amy J
