Natural Disaster Forums Online

Some of the forum features offered include the following.

Resources For Tsunami and Earthquake Aid

If you really want to be able to donate your time, goods, or cash to tsunami relief, but you wanted more control over how the money was spent, this can be a great source of information for you. Because the tsunami affected so many different countries, including several with very little aid infrastructure, it can be a nightmare finding out where you can do the most good with your help.

The Kashmir earthquake presents a different set of problems that are just as intimidating. While the earthquake's area was more limited and it has been pretty clear who was killed or lost in the disaster, it's much more difficult to deliver aid to those suffering the after-effects due to the inaccessible areas, political problems, and the arrival of winter

A forum offering information on places where tsunami aid is still needed, or that tells you who you can contact in order to give them assistance, is a perfect way for you to target your assistance and ensure it gets to those who still need it.

Information About Tsunamis

If you don't really understand tsunamis, you can post questions and get answers from people who have become reluctant experts on what tsunamis really do, as well as the natural mechanics of what drives them. You may also be able to find statistics on the damage and loss of life caused by the 2004 tsunami.

You can also ask questions about the situation in Kashmir about everything from maps to help you see why it's so hard to get aid in to detailed information about those who still need help, or who haven't even been reached yet by rescuers and aid agencies.

Finding Loved Ones

Whether you're a missing person or you're missing a loved one in the tsunami's aftermath, a site where you can post messages to find everyone can be invaluable. If you're halfway across the world, that goes double; it's almost impossible to drop your whole life to look for your loved one at the site of a disaster.

The South-East Asia Earthquake and Tsunami forum has an area where you can search out the ones you lost, and get information on other places you can look for them as well.

Donation Information

Last, and most importantly, the South-East Asia Earthquake and Tsunami forum helps you find the most convenient and simple method for donating to your chosen cause. It also gives you a variety of different ways you can donate without even noticing, from taking advantage of the Donate while You Sleep program where a portion of the cash you pay to stay at a hotel is donated to charity, to information about how you can take advantage of new tax rules to donate even more.
