After Cyclone Sidr - My View from Dhaka

After a devastating cyclone which has left over 3000 dead - what is often left out is how quick many parts of Bangladesh has recovered. Dhaka City was a city that had trees blocking roads, power lines collapsed, and many low income houses were blown apart. Yet, people in this city have slowly rebuilt. But that's just the good news. The bad news is there are a lot of people still suffering and they need your help. I am in Bangladesh working on my own project to help the poor If you want to make a donation, consider the following places: The Red Cross www.redcross.org CARE International. http Muslim Aid www.muslimaid.org World Vision http A few of these are secular charities, but aid will be given to all regardless of religious affiliation.
