Earthquake in South Asia

[BlazinWRX]

Hi Guys,

We had a really good turnout with the Hurricane relief, I hope we can achirve some success and at least create awareness for the earthquake in South Asia. Below is a letter that I got through my school:

I'm sure you must have heard of the devastation caused by the earthquake past weekend in Pakistan and India. It has resulted so far in over 30,000 dead and more than 50,000 injured/homeless/helpless. I'm afraid this number will increase manifolds once the access to remote areas is established.


Below are some links that show a more clear picture of the situation there.

Even though most of us cannot relate to the victims of the disaster as much as we were with the victims in New Orleans, I would still encourage our members to contribute any way they can. Thanks guys!

Yeah the news wasn't as widespread as the tsunami or the hurricane, but its' pretty serious at what happened over there in south Asia. A lot of people are left homeless and people are trying to dig up bodies of their dead freinds and relatives.
