I always give to the Militant Wing of the Salvation Army.

Excellent suggestion! I love the Salvation Army and my family has volunteered for generations.

Salvation Army.
Go to the US Salvation Army site,
they have an Indian Ocean fund.

indeed, the Salvation Army is generally the best. But are they plugged into this tsunami effort?
To: Peach
I'll second the Salvation Army.

My family chose the Salvation Army also. They have a fund specifically for the victims of the tsunami.

Agree on The Salvation Army. I saw a newspaper article this morning in which a spokesman said the SA had already mobilized all of its not inconsiderable resources in the affected areas for relief work and was seeking donations to purchase and transport supplies in accordance with the requests of the knowledgeable people already on the ground in country. Made sense to us and we sent them some (more - they're already one of our favorites) money.
Stay away from the Red Cross-they never use the money directly for the disaster you think you're contributing for, but rather put it in their general funds. There was quite an expose of their methods after 9/11. Not that they haven't done good work, but too much goes to administration and the staff these days and not enough to the actual aid to victims.
