#HelpJapan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief Blog Sale

Japan is a country near and dear to my heart, and the devastation the country is experiencing following the 9.0 Tohoku Earthquake is heartbreaking. I am hoping for the safety of the survivors and Japanese people and praying that the tremors and quakes stop and that Japan soon has time to recover.

But as important as positive thoughts, this relief effort needs FUNDS.

In Canada, the Canadian Red Cross is accepting donations for the JAPAN RELIEF EFFORT HERE:

Medicins San Frontieres (Doctors without Borders) has sent three teams to the Miyagi/Fukushima area and more are ready to go. You can find more information and donate here:

- 100% of the listed price for each item will be donated to either the Canadian Red Cross, or MSF

  2. On March 15th, 2011 www.fundraise.com launched it's online giving website in hopes of providing organizations and individuals with a revolutionary online fundraising tool that would change the way people across the United States fundraise.
    We had always envisioned sponsoring our own causes however, we had absolutely no idea that we would be doing just that so quickly.
    We have launched our first cause, Japan Disaster Relief, in hopes of helping the thousands of Japanese people who have been affected by the devastating earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011.
    100% of each donation to Japan Disaster Relief will be sent directly to Japan. Fundraise.com, Inc. will cover the transaction fee.
