Blog Quake Day
Yesterday was Blog Quake Day! But your posts made today will be just as useful.
The past few weeks have been eventful for the Indian blogosphere, and demonstrated our collective power. We worked together to ensure that the plight of Rashmi Bansal and Gaurav Sabnis got the attention they deserved. We were instrumental in shining light on the dark and murky foundations that IIPM appears to stand on. Both the international and the national mainstream media took note of the exceptional way in which the Indian blogosphere responded.
It is time now to unite the blogosphere again – this time to help the many thousands whose lives have been devastated by the earthquake on 08 October.
Taking inspiration from Instapundit and TTLB, and the massive donations they were able to collect for Katrina relief efforts, we are calling for a BLOG QUAKE DAY on Wednesday, Oct 26, 2005.
We request each of you to make a small post about the earthquake, and direct your readers to a suitable avenue for donating to the relief efforts.
Every single dollar contributed, multiplied by the vast numbers of bloggers, will go a long way in helping these people rebuild their lives. Our experience of the last few weeks showed us that, no matter how small our blogs, and no matter how few our readers, the words we write and the way we use our blogs can have far-reaching consequences. We learnt not to underestimate our powers. Let’s now use our powers for good.
Some organizations that are extensively involved in relief and rehabilitation efforts, and could use your monetary contributions, are listed below :
CARE
Oxfam
UNICEF
World Vision
Humanity First
Hidaya Foundation
SEWA International
International Rescue Committee
Pakistan President’s Relief Fund
The Human Development Foundation
The Association for the Development of Pakistan ’s Earthquake Redevelopment Fund
For more information about the earthquake, and the subsequent ongoing relief efforts, you can visit the following sites, that are doing an excellent job of aggregating related information.
South Asia Quake Help
South Asian Earthquake Relief
Pakistan Wiki on Earthquake 10-05
For those in the tristate area, YOUR DIL has established an Emergency Response Team that has established collection points throughout the NY Metro area for aid to be dropped off, so that it may be shipped to Pakistan. They’re collecting tents, sleeping bags, blankets and specific over-the-counter medicines. Their collection points for Oct 27 and 28 are listed here. They could also use some volunteers for Oct 27,28,29 – and if you’re interested you can email them. Check site for details about future collection drives.
If you write about this, please don’t forget to let us know through the comments section or by e-mail. Technorati tag: blog quake day.
(The Blog Relief Day image is courtesy of Sepoy @ Chapati Mystery. Please feel free to use the same in your posts. )
Update#1: Aditya from Indicast talks with Ash on the concept of Blog Quake Day and of course, other light stuff regards India [podcast format].
Update#2: Instapundit carries the Blog Quake Day message forward.
Update#3: Chapati Mystery has special T-shirts for you Quake Help bloggers.
Update #4: Jagan Mohan cautions us about donating money to organisations that serve as terrorist fronts, and argues that this issue has national implications.
While we also ask you to be careful in choosing a suitable organisation, we disagree with his jingoistic POV.
As Pankaj says, the children, women and the old are not part of the terrorist machinery, and they will suffer the most if relief items do not reach them before winter sets in. We hope that political misgivings will not obscure urgent humanitarian needs.
Update #5: Neha carries the appeal forward at Global Voices Online.
Update #6: Alex Nesbitt asks podcasters to join in and help.
Update #7: Instapundit reminds everyone about the round-the-world blogburst for Pakistan earthquake relief.
Update #8: Anna at Sepia Mutiny, who started it all, counts on the strength of the blogosphere - “there is so much good here, let’s send some back where we all came from.”
Update #9: Asiapundit calls for its readers to give generously.
Update #10: Global Voices Online is calling to all bloggers worldwide to exericse their power.
Update #11: Asians in Media reports on the Blog Quake Day eforts.
Update#12: Sujatha makes a public service announcement on PodBazaar. Thanks, Sujatha.
Update #13: Tom Steinberg explains the concept of Pledgebank and hopes we can use it for earthquake relief efforts.[See Comments Section] An interesting project - anyone care to make pledges ?

TCF, SUNGI and IR (Islamic Relief) - are some of the organizations you might wanna consider donating to because they’re direct orgs on the ground, IR is the lead agency for all active relief agencies operating in affected areas while Sungi are lead for Oxfam and CRS with TCF already pulling towards the middle of their phase 1 plan with phase 2 needing much support.
We’ve blogged about the above organizations on the QuakeHelp Blog (quakehelp.blogspot.com), feel free to take a look.
Thanks & Keep it Blogged!

Hi, I’ve posted the message in my space.
I think you may have to check a few links you have listed.
1. Oxfam: http://www.oxfam.org/eng/donate.htm
2. The one where you have mentioned as collection points for 27, 28 and 29 for YOURDIL: There has been some update there in their site. Please check. (You may mention of their scheduled fundraising event instead)
3. Your link of volunteers required for YOURIL doesn’t work. You may use this instead: http://www.yourdil.org/join/
krish
October 24th, 2005, 1:49 pm | #
Further, you may not mention the specific dates for volunteers - due to changes in the schedules of YOURDIL. Please check their site.
