HELP REBUILD CHILE (Online Sites)

Hola Amigos!
As you have heard through the news, Chile was hit by a devastating earthquake that really has affected the world in a large way. Thousands of Chilenos decades ago migrated to all parts of the world , including my family, with the hopes of making better lives for ourselves. We have all succeeded in this and now we are seeing a different struggle in Chile that has caught everyone's attention, not only the Chilean community. As a proud Chilean-Canadian, its really hard to see people from my country struggle but its in their blood to be strong people! As strong as they are, they are also in need of basic needs in life.
Many of you have asked how you can help and how you can contribute to the devastation in Chile. I am providing a couple links as they have just updated their websites for emergency response in Chile. The first one is a personal page created through Habitat for Humanity to raise funds.
HABITAT FOR HUMANITY - Chile Earthquake Response
I have also created a webpage link through Habitat for Humanity to raise funds online. Please help me reach my goal of $10,000 in hopes of providing emergency shelter needs for Chilean residents. This will help rebuild and repair existing homes so that they are habitable. Click the link below to pay by mastercard or credit card. An official tax receipt will be issued immediately.http://my.e2rm.com/personalPage.aspx?SID=2484066
PAYMENT IN PERSON: You are all more than welcome to also pay in person a cash or cheque donation for the Habitat for Humanity fundraising drive that ETOWN SALSA is hosting. If so, please make out cheques to "ETOWN SALSA " and we will pay on your behalf to Habitat and also issue an official tax receipt with your name.
CANADA RED CROSS - Chile Earthquake Fund
Here is a link to the Canada Red Cross emergency relief fund for CHILE. This will provide 15,000 families with relief goods, tents and tarpaulins as well as a field hospital, generators, water and sanitation teams and logistics support over the next six months.
