Rich "The Hubbins" Claussen - More On Helping Out

Monday, December 27, 2004

My buddy Scott Hanselman and his coworker (and often destination of referrals on my blog) Greg Hughes have a great idea: donate all of one's Google AdSense revenue to the relief efforts in South Asia.

I would say that one doesn't need to restrict one's self to just AdSense, but that is a great starting point. Further, Greg and Scott are beginning a campaign to encourage Google to help automate the process for users of AdSense.

Do the world a favor: Participate, Donate, and Contact Google along with all of us. It's worth it!

Update: Stuart Celarier has a great list of other agencies that one may consider, too:

Catholic Agency for Overseas Development (CAFOD)
CARE International
Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontieres)
Mercy Corps (Portland-based, international relief agency)
Oxfam
Save The Children
UNICEF
World Vision

Hi,
I'm from Sri Lanka, one of the countries worst hit by this quake.

Thank you for your compassion and for helping us out.

Merrill... I can't think of a more worthy thing to participate in. Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you in this time. Our world is much too small not to help our neighbors out.
