Donations to Samoa
We encourage and thank anyone considering making donations to those affected by the tsunami in Samoa.
However, most needs can be met with items readily available in Samoa, and those needs will continue to change as response moves from disaster relief to recovery.
For those affected to gain the best possible benefit from donations, we therefore recommend donations be monetary, to a reputable aid organisation or NGO, rather than 'in kind' (goods, materials, services).
