Disaster Recovery Fund
 Earthquake in China kills thousands & Leaves Many more homeless
A major earthquake struck central China on Monday, May 12, killing thousands and leaving many others injured and homeless. The quake, with a magnitude of 7.9 centered in Wenchuan County in Sichuan Province, was felt in Beijing and other major Asian cities.
Give2Asia is pulling together the resources of our Beijing office and local partners to bring assistance to communities suffering in the wake of this quake. Following efforts to support immediate relief, we will identify longer-term recovery projects to help those who are affected to rebuild structures and support critical services.
Please make a donation today for this effort, and return here to read more about the immediate relief and recovery efforts donors are making possible.

The Disaster Recovery Fund delivers aid for critical projects when disasters strike in Asia. Give2Asia’s network in 21 countries across the Asia-Pacific region makes it possible for us to act quickly, and fund local groups with established ties to affected communities. For example, after the tsunami on December 26, 2004, we were able to begin funding local groups in Southeast Asia by January 15.
The Disaster Recovery Fund pools your contribution with those made by many others to support local relief and recovery. The Disaster Recovery Fund will support projects such as:
· Emergency health services
· Disaster preparedness and response
· Legal aid and social services for families
· Orphan care
· Reconstruction
