Thank you. I would add to that list Mercy Corps - they are working with a China partner agency.

If you or your firm are interested in donating goods or money, we suggest you visit the website of China's Red Cross, China Charity Foundation, Poverty Alleviation Foundation, China Children Teenager Fund and Youth Development Foundation. The Red Cross will have the most immediate need, but the others will be more active on a long term basis

I will continue to update this as local NGOs send me their needs.

Hi there,
for those of us who are living in Chengdu but mostly unaffected by the quake, does NPR know if there's anything we can do to offer assistance to the areas harder hit? There are a number of us here who are willing to help but we don't know how to go about it and we don't want to get into the way of professional disaster relief.

If you are in Chengdu, check out the Chengdoo magazine website for ways to help locally: www.chengdoo.com

Cafe Paname is taking donations of food, blankets, water, meds, etc.
