What would you prepare for donations cash or stuff ?

Since I'm currently strapped for cash, I only use old stuff as a donation. I can only do that much for now. I just hope and pray that there would be fewer calamities this year. Typhoon Ondoy was the worst we had last year in Manila. For the first time, flood water had enter our home and it was knee deep high. Most of our things were damage. Luckily, all my loved ones were safe and sound.

Ideally cash is better because victims know what they need and they can simply buy them. If there is a non-government organization who is heading the project, then I suggest it's better to give in kind just to avoid possible cases of corruption.

Hello my friend shellback Ji, Well, if it is going through many hands, I would prefer to remain with cash, but if it is direct help, then I would prefer to help in kind, depend what one needs and what i could give. But cash may help better. But i doubt, if total cash reaches to people need. At least some % is wasted in wasted interest. be careful. May god bless You and have a great time.

We will donating old clothes,instant food and hopefully we can donate one sack of rice. My sister and some relatives are also victims but they are all okay and pretty sure they can cope up. We will give much more attention to those who are homeless and to those who cannot build their house in instant.

i have some old clothes here, that of my late husband's. i am looking for a reliable donation center to give these clothes out. we are in the central visayas, i just hope they reach in time for the people who have been victimized. it is really heart-breaking to watch the news on tv. i just can't imagine the ordeal they are now into. i pray for all of them that God gives them more strength to withstand this catastrophy.

I prefer stuffs. My family have been donating clothes and other stuffs to victims of calamaties, even during christmas. We don't have even cash to give them, that's why we prefer to give stuffs.

i would give anything that i have available. if i have cash then i will give cash, if i have no cash but have can goods, clothing, slippers, blankets, anything that i could give or share i will do so. seeing those people that have suffered from the storm ondoy is heart breaking and so whatever i can give i will.

i would prefer giving out goods rather than cash...coz cash dont tend to get to those whom i intend to donate to... there are a lot of greedy people out there who do not have the heart and would dip their fingers into anything even knowing more people out thereneeds it more...

Last year our country had been a serious earthquake,I donate both cash and some clothing.Money can help them to buy sth they need mostly,And the clothing can also help them to satisfy essential requirements. sometimes i wish i can become a volunteer to help the homeless;bring them the hope of life,be optimized about the difficulties and rebuild their home.But I don't have a long vacation to the disaster area. So If we have some abilities,Just help some miserable people.
