Credible Places to Send Aid for Haiti (and other natural disasters)

If you don’t have a private jet that you can fuel, pack with supplies, and send to Port-au-Prince, then your next best option to provide immediate support is probably making a donation online.  The FBI reminded us in a press release today to be careful about scams and fraudulent calls for aid. (I can’t even begin to imagine the negative Karmic implications of scamming people at a time like this.)  While most of us are savvy to normal online scamming methods, we at Gen Cubed thought we’d compile a list of some of our favorite non profits that are actively helping in the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake.

You don’t have to give much to make a big difference, we passed around the hat at the office and gave what we could.  Every bit counts!   Anyhow, here’s the list of great organizations on the ground, in no particular order:

Mercy Corps

International Medical Corps

Doctors Without Borders

Care

American Red Cross

Americares

If there’s an organization we missed, let us know, we’ll take a look at it and add it to the list.
