EDITORS AND NEWS DIRECTORS:
Please add Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA)
to your list of programs accepting donations for active, on-site relief efforts
for victims of the Myanmar/Burma cyclone. The listing should appear as follows:
Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (www.pcusa.org/pda) (800) 872-3283
Background on PDA: PDA is a non-profit relief and recovery program
of the 2.4-million member Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). Since 1946, it has provided
field-trained disaster teams, financial assistance and human services annually
to disasters in 55 countries on six continents. Persons calling the above 800
number will speak with a disaster assistance specialist who will advise them
how they can best support the relief effort at that moment, including volunteer
positions. Information on other PDA Disaster Team responses
currently underway worldwide is available online. |
