In Recognition of the Japan Disaster
For those of you who have family or loved ones impacted by this most recent disaster, our hearts and prayers are with you. We will be donating a portion of our profits for the entire day March 23rd to Doctors Without Borders, a medical relief organization in recognition of the devastating situation in Japan. You can find out more about the assistance being provided by Doctors Without Borders in Japan and throughout the world.
Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international medical humanitarian organization working in more than 60 countries to assist people whose survival is threatened by violence, neglect, or catastrophe. There are many nonprofits, and often the choices are confusing. We’ve found www.CharityNavigator.org to be a reliable resource for providing ratings and financial backgrounds on over 5500 charities. Another useful website for vetting of nonprofits is www.Guidestar.org and of course your local Better Business Bureau for locally based organizations.
