One Thousand Tents
June 29, 2008 by tom5436 · Leave a Comment
One Thousand Tents is an effort to provide shelter to some of the 5 million people left homeless in the aftermath of the May 12th earthquake in China.
To put this tragedy in prespective, five million people is the equivalent to 7 times the population of San Francisco suddenly becoming homeless.
China has used its supply of two million tents and is in urgent need of additional tents. Millions of earthquake survivors are currently living in unsheltered camps.
The cost of one tent is $135. You can help by making an online donation of any amount. We also welcome and appreciate entrepreneurial efforts to support this important relief work. Family and neighborhood projects, co-worker support and corporate donations are powerful ways to come together in a time of need. Thank you!
Donate using your credit card at our secure site where you will make an online contribution (Online Giving) for China Earthquake Relief. To donate you will need to set up an account, if you don\’t already have one. Setting up an account is easy, just your name and e-mail address is needed. Donate here
