How to Help the Burmese

As most of you know, Cyclone Nargis dealt a devasting blow to Myanmar/Burma. They now estimate that 100,000 people may have died. In part because of military junta, relief agencies are having trouble getting in. I searched for good places to make donations, but I'm having trouble finding them—at least ones I know and trust. At the bottom of the Wikipedia page on this is a list of places where you can send a targeted donation. If anyone hears of other good places where we can send donations—places which can actually get help to the people, let me know and I'll add links. So send your moula, prayers, enchantments—whatever you got—and help these people out.

P.S. Here's what Doctors Without Borders is saying.
