Ways to Support Victims of Uttarakhand Disaster
All those who have survived the tragedy need resources, whether in hospitals or rescue camps. While relief through the military is being disbursed the conditions in the camp are dismal. Twitteratis are reporting that in rescue camps the supply for food is far outreaching the demand with most children going hungry for hours if not days. By giving even a small amount you can make a big difference to those who are immediately in need. Following are some organizations that have already disbursed funds:
