Taking inspiration from Instapundit and TTLB, and the massive donations they were able to collect for Katrina relief efforts, we are calling for a BLOG QUAKE DAY on Wednesday, Oct 26, 2005.I would recommend Oxfam as the charity of choice for this endeavor.
We request each of you to make a small post about the earthquake, and direct your readers to a suitable avenue for donating to the relief efforts.
Every single dollar contributed, multiplied by the vast numbers of bloggers, will go a long way in helping these people rebuild their lives. Our experience of the last few weeks showed us that, no matter how small our blogs, and no matter how few our readers, the words we write and the way we use our blogs can have far-reaching consequences. We learnt not to underestimate our powers. Let’s now use our powers for good.
For the latest on the quake relief efforts, check out South Asia Quake Help and the Quake Wiki.
