When disaster strikes and relief funds are set up all over calling for donations for those affected, you sometimes wonder how many of these are done genuinely to help the people and not a scam to reap money off gullible people. Perhaps the best thing to do is to give directly to the victims themselves, but sometimes it is not possible to do so, and even if you happen to be there, conditions is such that one would find oneself in a state of chaos and there will be difficulties separating between victims and quacks.
Perhaps it is in human nature to take advantage of others, that being the law of the jungle. Why should we be surprise to hear reports of criminal activities and malice whenever a disaster of massive scale happens, whether natural or man-made?

I pray that the victims of trauma would be able to rebuild their lives and look forward to better things, though life is very bleak at the moment.

Anyone with the expertise and ability to render help should give a hand as lots of hands are needed.
And hurray for the debt relief
