3. 50 pounds on it's way...

through the British Red Cross

Thanks for the link. I had tried earlier to use the Lebanon Red Cross but the donation form was a pain for me.

5. I did it thru the British Red Cross too. I was originally going thru the Lebanon Red Cross, but

was a bit leery about putting my card info out there. The British Red Cross site says they're working directly with the Lebanese Red Cross, and the PayPal option cinched it. PayPal automatically converts pounds to dollars. It's easy and secure.

"The British Red Cross is working closely with the Lebanese Red Cross who have been at the heart of the response. The immediate focus is on saving lives."

Lebanon Red Cross is immediate boots on the ground now. I'm hoping our donations translate to right-now action.
