I don't have much to spare, but I donated $10. Please do what you can. For anyone not in Australia who wishes to donate, I will endeavour to find out how you can donate online.
There are also calls for blood donations ~ I can't do that at the moment given my recent illness, but maybe you can ?

Such a devastating time for so many. Hopefully we can all contribute in some small way; whether it be $10.00 or $1.00.Thanks for posting on something so important to us all, Cin...because it really is a time of significant desperation and need. Mx
Oh how awful!!!! Is there a donation place for US?? With Paypal maybe? I don't have much either, but I could spare a bit, I am sure!
Lawanda, here is a link to the American Red Cross International Response Fund

I can't see where you can specify which fund you'd like your donation to go to though. Maybe you could call the 1800 number ?
Alternately, if you can make a transfer to an international bank, then you can do so to any of the banks listed in my post.
Thank you for your support, our Victorian families need it.
