I have learned since sending out my first message that a local effort has
been underway to provide support for the flood victims. This local group
has diccovered an agency through which aid can be chanelled and for which
we can be guaranteed that a 100% of the money we send will go towards
alleviating the problem for which we sent the money. The bureaucratic
structure in the agencies I first mentioned will not allow for a full
funneling of our resources to the cause for which we sent it. Being that
we all want us much money as possible to get to our brothers and sisters,
I STRONGLY encourage everyone to channel their donations through our local
Behany Methodist Church where the pastor promises to send the money to a
Methodist church in Mozambique for them to use as needed. Send your
checks to Bethany Methodist Church, indicate that you want the money to go
towards the flood relief effort by writing Mozambique in the memo and mail
the check to either:
Bethany Methodist Church,
3910 Mineral Point Road,
Madison, WI 53705
or
Ana Maria Mondjana,
4609 Waukesha Street,
Madison, WI 53705

===> and from the Red Cross <[log in to unmask]> ===>
The best way to help the Mozambique victims is with a financial
contribution, since it is the most effective way for the Red Cross to
provide rapid relief and enables the most flexible use of resources.
The purchasing of the US dollar allows the Red Cross to
maximize the value of cash donations, supplies arrive quickly and
storage costs are minimized.
If you wish to send a donation, you may do so as follows:
Make your check payable to American Red Cross, earmark it
"Mozambique
Relief"
Mail to:
American Red Cross
P.O. Box 37243
Washington, DC 20013
Thank you
