How to contact the poor students suffered in Sichuan Earthquake in order to help?

en, I am a Chinese student studying in Singapore. Recently, we heard about the Earthquake in Sichuan and felt that we should do sth. We have already make a fundraising but we still want to help the poor students chase their dreams. So, should we contact any charities or the government?


Really thanks for your help!|||Right now I think they are still working on getting shelter and food for everybody. A lot of schools got destroyed, so there will be a year or longer of studying in halls or out in the open. Also a shortage of supplies, like books, paper and pens.


Don't give the money to a Government appeal.


Check all the official charities operating in Singapore that have an earthquake appeal. Find out what each one is concentrating on (food, clothing etc) to donate to the one doing something special for students.


If you are able to find one large school (the charity might help you) perhaps your school can "adopt" them as a sister school, and send them books or equipment they tell you they need, maybe next year too, until they get back on their feet.
