Thanks Bob for all the info. I'd add that * American Red Cross
http://www.redcross.org/donate/donate.html is a profit making
organization.

I like

Mercy Corps www.mercycorps.org/ they help kids.

Salvation Army www.salvationarmyusa.org/


Doctors without Borders up there too along with ACLU if our disasters
become less urgent here but no less about the planet. Amnesty
International needs $ too.
