sxsw4japan.org, partnering with the Red Cross, has already cleared an initial goal of $10,000 in donations to help victim relief in Japan. As befits a conference full of smart, savvy go-getters, they’re shooting for $10,000 more.
You can help them reach that goal by going here. You can text your donation to 90999, too.
The Red Cross also asks for ongoing help with blood donation, but we're going to strongly encourage you to wait until you've cleared all the alcohol and BBQ out of your system first.
