Donate! Do it! You know you want to!

Well, I haven't even been back for 24 hours yet, and all I've managed to do is glue myself to the news on the tsunami. Should anyone have some extra cash lying around, the Federal Government will be matching all individual donations dollar-for-dollar to the NGOs below until January 11th (I can only assume in addition to the $80 million announced today).

Canadian organizations eligible for government matching funds:

Also, if anyone cares (and I admit, this is definitely a benefit for me) the government has also extended the 2004 charitable donation deadline until January 11th so that all tsunami relief donations made before that day can be included on your 2004 tax return.

On a side note, this whole mess certainly puts the upcoming tuition "struggle" into perspective, no?
