China / Burma Disaster Relief

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

I am not taking any compensation for this post and have not taken any compensation for any post’s since December.

By now you know that disaster prep is what I do, Teaching people to fend for them selves so that they don’t have to rely on some politician to help them. Well the people of China and Burma don’t have the luxury that we free people of the United States Have. But there are ways around this red tape. Save the Children is one of the few charities that are allowed by both the Chinese Government and the Myanmar Junta to operate in their territories.

A forum that I am a member of, Called Zombie Squad is holding a fund drive to provide disaster relief to the peoples affected in these tragedies. Zombie Squad is a St Louis based non for profit disaster education\relief group that provides education on preparing for disasters along with a unique entertaining approach. After all if you could survive a zombie outbreak you can survive anything. Most of the members are Redcross volunteers, police, fire, ems, or just regular Joe’s that want to learn how to manage in the event of a Tornado, Earthquake or Katrina scale disaster.

Zombie Squad’s mission has always been to educate the community to prepare for natural disasters. We also assist communities in their time of need when disaster strikes.

This fundraiser will follow the same design as our previous Hurricane Katrina and Greensburg Kansas Relief fundraisers.

With Hurricane Katrina, we raised:
Amount Raised: $2686.00
Number of Donors: 100

During the Greensburg Kansas disaster, we raised:
Amount Raised: $2701.00
Number of Donors: 92

I’d like to see no less than $5,000 raised for this one. I know we now have the membership base to make this a reality and really make a difference for the literally millions of people suffering from this storm.

The funds for this drive will be donated directly to http://www.savethechildren.org/ via check at the completion of this fund drive, which will last 30 days. Save The Children is one of the few charities which are actively giving aid in both the country of Myanmar and Sichuan Province in China.

NOTE: 100% of your donation will go directly to this charity with Zombie Squad paying all of the associated fees we will incur for this drive. If you donate $100, every cent goes to Save The Children and in turn, to those in need in Myanmar and China.

Why not just donate money directly? There’s nothing wrong with that. If you don’t feel comfortable donating to the ZS fund then please don’t let that stop you from donating directly! However, You get cool stuff if you donate with us:

1) The first 100 to donate $20 or more to the ZS collection will receive a special edition ZS dog tag, similar to the Katrina relief effort tags.
2) If you’re a member of our discussion forum, you’ll get a cool banner under your name until the end of the year.

Or you can send us a check or money order payable to Zombie Squad (no cash). However. Be sure to e-mail us at charity@zombiehunters.org so we know to expect it.

Make sure to mark on the check that it is for Myanmar/China Relief Donations.

We feel it is important to come together and help out those whose lives have been affected by this tragedy. This is our opportunity to show what we as a group can do to make our world a better place.

If you are not comfortable donating to ZS please do not let that stop you from helping out. However, be sure to investigate before you give.

Thank you for your help. If you have any questions at all regarding this relief fund raiser, please don’t hesitate to email Gunny at charity@zombiehunters.org
