I had some friends go to Costa Rica after the hurricane to help out for two weeks. Most of us can't do that of course, what with jobs and families. My friends were both single, well off financially, and had vacation time available and took it.

Money is truly the best most of us this side the planet can offer, if we have it. Question is, who best to send the money to?I'd rather send money to the region directly, and not have it eaten up by administrative costs just to ship the money to Asia, if you catch my drift.
