Much of the donate money goes to middle man...........

The 10-day-old baby was taken to an ambulance after being saved from a collapsed building. A new-born baby and his mother have been rescued from rubble in Turkey, around 90 hours after the first of Monday's deadly earthquakes.

Honestly, donating goods is not as effective as cash when the disaster is a great distance away. Who is going to deliver and at what cost? Most of the donated goods will be thrown away eventually.

Please show proof!
In times of severe disasters, lots of scammers taking opportunities and post fake websites asking for donations. Very evil in doing this.

Hi Bunny, uncle currently living from hand to mouth.....short of scavenging rubbish bins.

it means they have enough or more then they can handle as it also cost money to transport there.
They still need money to buy medicine
food n shelter the victims.
U see even our country sent our people to help not money. If want medicine many willing to transport free of charge. Sending money highly the victims do not get it.
Don't want?
Then we collect back and give to other countries who need it, lor
No big deal.
