As the full effects of the quakes are evaluated, that number is sure to increase. Those who wish to contribute to the American Red Cross international relief efforts in Central America are encouraged to make cash donations. Cash is the most effective way for the Red Cross to provide rapid relief, and enables the most flexible use of resources. All Red Cross assistance is free, made possible by voluntary gifts of time and money from the American people. Contributions to the Disaster Relief Fund may also be sent to the Greater Salt Lake Area Chapter of the American Red Cross, P.O. Box 3836, Salt Lake City, UT 84110.
