Blog Quake day came and went, but so much more still needs to be don(at)e(d).
I was startled out of my morning cup of Kona when I realised that Mushie of Pakistan was on NBC's Today show. When Ann Curry asked him how much more help his country needs; his answer was measured in the Billions.
My cousin Lisa (yup, she of fellow fotolog fame) sent me a forward with an easy way people in DC can pitch in TOMORROW:
BEN & JERRY's in Dupont Circle has graciously agreed to donate 25 % of your tab towards the South Asia Earthquake Relief Effort. The money will go directly to the Association of Pakistani Physicians of North America (APPNA). Please mention the cause when you purchase your ice cream.
An estimated 70,000-80,000 people have been killed and 2.7 million left homeless in the aftermath of a devastating earthquake that hit Pakistan, Kashmir and India on October 8th. With the harsh Himalayan winter rapidly approaching, death tolls are expected to double.
You CAN make a difference. Your contribution will be used on the ground in Pakistan to assist doctors and nurses treat the injured and prevent the spread of disease.
When: Wednesday, November 16th, 7:30-8:30p
Where: Ben & Jerry's, 1333 19th Street NW
Ann Curry asked him
Hee hee, her name is "curry."
Seriously, when am I going to grow the F up?
