Dear Business Partners and Friends,
Over the past several years MappiBiz in partnership with BidClix has lent our support to a wonderful organization called NetAid (www.netaid.org).
NetAid is a growing network of people and organizations that are committed to ending extreme poverty.
In Zambia NetAid assists scores of children who have been rendered orphans by AIDS; many of them live in the streets where there is little hope for a better life.
As you well know, a devastating earthquake off the coast of Sumatra brought waves of destruction to thousands of communities throughout Asia. The staggering death toll - now suspected to be over 120,000 - continues to rise.
The humanitarian crisis continues to unfold as millions of people - a third of them children - have been made homeless, are without access to clean water, shelter, food, sanitation and health care.
In crisis situations it is understandably difficult for donors and aid organizations to work fast enough to provide effective relief to those most in need. I was immediately impressed with NetAid's rapid response to the crisis and wanted to learn more about how they were able to respond so quickly.
NetAid has long standing relationships with local partners in India, there on the ground, in some of the worst affected areas. The local partners are sensitive to the immediate needs of their communities and are able to respond quickly, and appropriately. NetAid local partners were quick to provide support to survivors and to continue to help them with the long term project of building better lives.
Please join us in supporting NetAid's Asian Earthquake Crisis Fund today.
