What's so complicated about it? Please read what I've suggested. I'm not going to give the money to any tomdick...I'll look for an NGO that's CURRENTLY active in providing help for these ppl and send them the money once I/we have established that they are genuine, reputable and active.

Oryx: You could be useful in finding out through your direct contacts in goma which NGO's are active in this current event and meet up to come up with ways to go about having QL involved in this tragic event.

No one said this is an easy task, but everybody certainly knows that talking is easy. We can all choose to be part of something and ending up knowing that we TRIED something or think too much of what-if scenarios i.e. jesus taking your money and succumb to your negative thoughts and pessimism ending doing zilch.

Its not easy work. try the organizations that are dealing with this things, maybe Qatar Charity is also ok.

Poverty is not for the sake of hardship. No, it is there because nothing exists but God. Poverty unlocks the door -- what a blessed key!
