You're probably already aware of what's going on in Chile and if you are not you should read up about it. Okay I'll tell ya, 8.8 Magnitude Earthquake just hit the country of Chile Yesterday. If you are looking into contributing to relief effort for Chile here are some ways you can do that. If you have the means, I encourage you to donate through one of the channels below.

1.) Via texting - As with the Haitian relief efforts, the Mobile Giving Foundation has launched a text messaging campaign for micro donations, and the four major U.S. mobile carriers, Verizon, At&T, Sprint, and T-mobile, have waived text messaging fees for donations.  
  • Text the word “CHILE” to 25383 to donate $10 on behalf of the Habitat for Humanity
  • Text the word “CHILE” to 20222 to donate $10 on behalf of World Vision
  • Text the word “CHILE” to 52000 to donate $10 on behalf of the Salvation Army
