Eco Event #2

I found this article on a site called aidwatchers.com. On this site they have many articles on what is going on in Japan and what can be done to help.

The title of this article is "Does Japan Need Your Donation?". The reason I chose to read this article at all was because of how interesting I thought the title was. When you first read it you think to yourself, "well of course Japan needs our donations". What we do not realize is that the American Red Cross does not need anymore donations. They stated this to the public and since then they have still raised over 34 million dollars. In the article they discussed that they did not even know what they were going to do with all of the extra money.

I found this article shocking because I always thought that organizations that do things like give aid will always need money but I guess I was wrong. Then i realized that it's not money that helps people but that only people can help people. This article gave me another view on how someone can actually do some good for Japan.
