That Quake in China may have been an 8.0. Over 42,000 dead.

Nearly a week after an enormous earthquake devastated much of north central Sichuan province, officials raised the death toll to 32,476, and said at least 10,000 others were still buried and presumed dead. At least 220,000 others were injured by last Monday’s quake. Authorities said they were taking measures to prevent the spread of disease through contaminated water. - nyt

That's a terrible loss of life. You can donate at the American Red Cross, but they don't take PayPal. Does anyone know of a legit organization helping with disaster relief that takes PayPal?
