Have I mentioned that FedEx is just freaking amazing?<\/p>\n

The help they have given Spirit of America<\/a> and Operation Give<\/a> is incredible, but Operation Give’s Plunge and Chief Wiggles – who works for FedEx – has taken it up to a whole new level<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He’s diverting Operation Give’s resources for the next few weeks to the tsunami victims, and offered Operation Give’s Salt Lake City Warehouse, and FedEx has offered both to take a planeload of goods to the Indian Ocean area, but to pick up and transship those donated goods from your house to the warehouse.<\/p>\n

Now I wouldn’t advocate FedExing flats of water bottles, but here’s what they are trying to collect or purchase (hint – you can send them money):<\/p>\n

Hygiene items
\nMedical supplies: Bandages, alcohol, disinfectants, etc.
\nWater purification
\nPackaged food
\nNew Cooking utensils
\nWater containers
\nNew Clothing
\nNew Shoes
\nTarps<\/i><\/p>\n

You can sent money to them by Paypal (click here)<\/a>, or you can assemble some of the required NEW ITEMS ONLY<\/b>, and call them at the number on the linked page, and they will arrange FREE<\/b> FedEx shipping.<\/p>\n

Again, be conscious of what you’re shipping; don’t spend $50.00 of FedEx’s fuel to ship $10.00 worth of items. <\/p>\n

But here’s another quick-reaction way that you can make a difference on the ground over there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
