The events currently unfolding in Gaza are absolutely appalling. As we near 1,000 casualties, many civilians, you may feel there’s not much you can do to help. Well, you’d be wrong.
A thread on the Something Awful forums has a great list of charities that provide aid to the Palestinians caught in the cross-fire. I plan a donation for Doctors Without Borders when I get paid on Friday.
Oh, and while you’re at it, buy some Fair Trade, Organic olive oil. Yum!

SA member “Soft Money 1M”, the author of the donation thread, updated the original post today with a running total.
In three days the forums have donated over $10,000 to various charities. Impressive!

It’s interesting to me that so many Americans are so vocal about the what’s happening in Gaza, and so much less vocal about the civilian casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan. I know this doesn’t apply to you. But you have to admit, it’s a little weird.
