A letter posted at CBC News:
“This may sound silly to some, but I hope people realize they can do something very beneficial, very easily … on Saturday may 24, when all my friends were frantically trying to purchase tickets to the upcoming Madonna concert, I went into a local [bank] and donated my $200 ticket money to a Sichuan Earthquake Relief Fund.
“I can do without one evening of musical pleasure, but there are tens of thousands of people in China, and Myanmar, that are suffering without food and shelter. My money has better use in China than it does elsewhere! I post this just so people who read it can think about donating money they would otherwise spend needlessly.”
Kindly check my post on May 21 for list of aid organizations ready to receive your donation.
