I've spent all evening listening to the radio. 84 dead, over 500 homes lost. Can I justify indulging myself further given the suffering?

I will give at least $100 to the relief fund. If I buy the Hanlin I won't have much extra for a month or so to give more.

So, opinions please. Do I get the Hanlin or just give the money to fire victims?

Give what you feel is right for you.

Right now, donations must be pouring in. In a month or two, there will not be so much being given. Perhaps then there will be a more concrete list of items needed.

Blankets, fans, specific sizes of clothing.......

Your heart is good.
