Help Jogjakarta quake victims

Whenever there is a disaster it is sometimes difficult to know which NGO you can trust 

to deliver the help. If you're in such a position then consider HOPE worldwide. 

My office and client, Citigroup Indonesia, have been working with HOPE in several projects, 

including the Recovery and Rehabilitation effort in Aceh and have found HOPE reliable, efficient 

and effective. I've included a note from Charles Ham,HOPE's country director below. 

If you can help, please do.  

Charles' note:  

HOPE worldwide is organizing a relief effort to help the victims, which has
come up to 3,000 dead up to tonight. It could grow more. In addition, the
Merapi Volcano nearby is also in very high danger of exploding as well.

The teams will partner and be based at the Condong Catur Hospital in Sleman
distrik. A team from Jakarta is coming tomorrow evening through Solo, two
hour away by land. Another team from Surabaya is also coming tomorrow
evening, joining about 100 volunteers in the area to provide help.

The focus of relief will be health service for the next few days, setting
up soup kitchen & clothings.  Please be praying for the teams that are
leaving in a few hours from now.

For now it is estimated at least $10,000 will be needed to support the
relief efforts. It will be greatly appreciated if any person, church,
agency, or corporation to join us in supporting the effort to help the
victims. Pray that they will be in time to help some people.

For any questions, please call me at 62-816-1834574.

Regards,
