Fiji Floods - donating to disaster relief

Many of you will have seen news of the flooding in Fiji which has caused widespread devastation throughout the islands.

If anyone is moved to donate to the relief effort, I have found the attached organisation based in the USA – Fiji Aid International.

The link takes you to their ‘Fiji Floods’ page which in turn contains a link to their donations page. They offer the facility to donate via Paypal – note donations are in US$.

You can specify the purpose of your donation the on the donation form.

I know there is a Facebook group which provides the bank details for Fiji Red Cross for donations (sorry don’t have the details to hand), but thought this looked a quicker and easier way than international bank transfers.

Though normally providing medical assistance, Fiji Aid International has already sent a financial donation to Fiji Red Cross, which is mentioned on the Fijilive website as well as on their own site.
