PIF Japan

[UntamedRose]

I realize that the majority of the time, by our own rules, PIF only deals with ecigs.
However I think we can make an exception here.


Anyone have some good suggestions on what organizations to donate to, to help the people in Japan??

Found this earlier...double your donation to the redcross.

Unfortunately, I don't have the any funds to help (limited income) - but I did want to say I am impressed at what so many are doing - i.e.; Sandra Bullock has donated a million bucks (I always did like her, now I just like her more).

If you're buying juice anyway, FSUSA is having a sale and donating 10% and matching it. It's not a direct donation, but if you're buying stuff anyway...

I believe there are a few charity suggestions in the thread for the sale in thier forum.

(I know there has been some controversy over this, but I don't see how it's any different than Yoplait, of KFC donating a percentage to Susan G Komen. I think it's more productive than a St. Patty's sale. JMHO)

Wow that's pretty awesome of FSUSA! I'd buy from them if i didn't just spend my whole monthly budget on a bunch of DIY stuff from Nicvape. I do have a lot of respect for FSUSA now though

Im not buying from FSUSA at the moment because they lied about why their associates left them.I like one of those people very much and I was personally offended by it.They are off my supplier list for now.Tell me a different way that I can help and I will.

Great Idea!!I will check!

NM, I don't want to know. It's just internet drama that I don't need to be part of. Carry on.

Well Keyz,

As I posted in the fsusa sub forum before David started deleting my posts, for disaster relief I rely on two of my regular NGOs; Red Cross and World Vision.

I would add that within America in particular The Salvation Army and America's Food Harvest does a bang up job feeding and clothing Americans quietly daily.

Sorry, OT, but only a little OT.

Here's a story about Japan and a dog... If this doesn't melt your heart, nothing ever will.

I just have to share it with you, guys.

Thank you. Those were the links I was referring to.
