Make your love felt -- Donating to quake victims in China

On Monday, May 12, at 2.28 p.m. Beijing time (6:28 GMT), a major earthquake, measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale, jolted southwestern China's Sichuan Province. Several lower-scale earthquakes and aftershocks followed in the same area. The quake destroyed many buildings in the area, as well as infrastructure like communication towers.

According to the latest reports, more than 12,000 people have died and many more have been injured or are missing. Many schools were destroyed, including one that had at least 900 students in it. As authorities reach more remote areas, these numbers are expected to rise.

Hey,my countrymen ctizens of the world: death toll is increasing maybe to 50,000 , plus a huge lake has formed as a consequence of the collapsing hills, an this unstable lake menace to overflow and kill thousands of chinese citizens. Once again I appeal to your sensitivity and to donate to Chinese or International RED Cross to help. A few couple of bucks by millions can help victims and can feel chinese citizens supported by the outer world.
