I need to lay off credit card usage for a while, but I have cash in my wallet. I will gladly hand it over to help the victims of this horrible disaster, but I need a reputable place to give it to. Should I just take it directly to the nearest Red Cross headquarters? We have a RC blood donation center in town, but that's all I know of.

(3,724 posts)1. I think you can text a $10 donation to the Red Cross - the money gets
charged to your phone bill. The number is 90999. Not exactly a cash donation, but not a credit card either.

Also, you can do it more than once if you want to donate more than $10.

And posted it on FB. I'm always glad for easier donation avenues, I need to lay off the credit card for a bit myself.
