For Japan With Love

I know a lot of you, like myself, have watched the event in Japan unfold right before our eyes this past week. All the videos and images streaming in via the news and internet and social media avenues obviously not compare to what is really going on there. My thoughts and prayers are going out to those in Japan and all the families affected by this tragic event. I saw on the news earlier today where 13,000 people were deceased or missing. It's so sad to think about but there is a way that we can help! I am choosing a bloggers day of silence to help raise awareness for FOR JAPAN WITH LOVE. See the information below and please, please, please DONATE if you feel led to help!

DONATE

ShelterBox is an international disaster relief charity delivering emergency shelter. It was one of the first organizations asked by Japan to help and were on hand on the Saturday after the quake.  Each large, green ShelterBox is tailored to a disaster but typically contains a disaster relief tent for an extended family (up to 10 people), blankets, water storage and purification equipment, cooking utensils, a stove, a basic tool kit, a children’s activity pack and other vital items. If you would like to help donate please do so by clicking this link For Japan With Love and going to the top right hand corner and click DONATE! Please check it out and whatever you can contribute will be so appreciated.
