As you may know, a huge earthquake hit the Sichuan province of China a couple of weeks ago. The latest figures are counting about 70,000 dead and 5 million left homeless. Those are some crazy numbers. (For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Sichuan_earthquake)
From what I have been reading, the best way to help is to donate to the Red Cross' International Relief Fund. This not only helps the victims of the Chinese earthquake but also victims of any number of other crises around the world each year. Like the Cyclone that hit Myanmar (assuming the government there lets the Red Cross do its job).

Every bit helps. But even if you can't afford to donate anything, you can still help by spreading the word. In forums, in your blog, to friends.
The heart of the Underground members goes out to the victims and if you know people affected by this catastrophe, our sincere condolences.
