What entity do FReepers do think is the most efficient place to donate? I'm wary of the Red Cross after the 9/11 'administrative' overhead expose. Moreover, I'm not interested in donating to any entity with an agenda (including leftist and/or missionary types), although the Salvation Army seems OK.

I had the same concerns as you during the tsunami disaster, did some research, and settled on Samaritan's Purse. It's Franklin Graham's organization and is big enough to do real good, not sectarian enough to alienate anyone, and isn't controlled by leftists types.

Franklin Graham had a great idea last night....If each church in the nation temp. "adopted" just one family or group....there would be no problem.
