Call for donation to the Sichuan Earthquake Relief Fund

A massive 7.8-magnitude earthquake centered in Wenchuan, Sichuan, China occurred at14:28 pm, May 12, 2008. The death toll in the earthquake climbed past 13,000 on Tuesday. The death toll and missing are still adding every minute as rescue workers dug through flattened schools and homes in a desperate effort to save more survivors of China's worst earthquake in three decades. Local Chinese and Chinese American organizations held a conference on May 12 and decided to form the "Michigan Chinese Sichuan Earthquake Relief Working Committee" and called for donation to "Sichuan Earthquake Relief Fund". A seven-member core team has been formed to coordinate the effort and to ensure all fund go to needed parties in China, in the most efficient way and in a timely manner. The conference decided to give the donation directly to China Red Cross.

DCEA is one of the participating organizers inside the Michigan Chinese Sichuan Earthquake Relief Working Committee. We are calling for earthquake donations. If you make a donation, please write DCEA before you name.
