Many of our generous Bravenet Journal Community members have already begun the re-building process by contributing to a local disaster relief organization of their choice!
Journal Member Bronwyn has organized an awesome way to rally support for the affected millions in Asia, resulting in over $1300.00 USD in reported donations already!

So far, Journal members have raised over $,1300.00 USD... That's enough to provider safe drinking water for 1,333 people for one week, 27 mosquito nets to reduce the risk of malaria, emergency kits for 214 people, rice for 17 families for one month, support for an orphan for a year, *and* two clutches of chicks!
Your donations can save and will change lives forever.... Spread the word, and make a difference!
From the Japanese word for "harbor wave", tsunami is a word that is now associated with a giant, destructive wave. These giant waves are caused by underwater disturbances, such as earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. In South Asia, the word tsunami is a representation of absolute devastation.
On Sunday December 26, 2004, a tsunami hit the coastlines of Southern Asia, leaving behind devastation and tragedy among millions of people. December 31: the death toll is sitting just below 140,000 people. Unfortunately, that total is not yet finished as the number continues to rise.
All the aid and reparation of the cities affected, as well as the individuals that were involved will have a high price. As each day goes on, that price becomes more and more out of reach to the people that need it. This is why we would like to help out in any way that we can.
