"One thing everyone can do is make sure to donate to the RIGHT charity."

General Question:
Any possibility of a FR collection drive and distribution based on charities known to be more valuable than the Red Cross?
Oops, I said it.

The Red Cross does an EXCELLENT job. People who think otherwise do not know what they are talking about. Their job is to help sustain life for the disaster and during the disaster. Their job is NOT to rebuild your house or be a welfare program for your kids.

THOUSANDS of lifes are saved because of the shelters that the Red Cross opens before and during natural disasters.

Red Cross is an excellent place to donate. They do a great job with the money they get and they get to the disaster area faster than almost anyone else.

Any possibility of a FR collection drive

Nope. Been asked before. For good reasons, it would not be something this board is capable of. There will be plenty of places to give to.
