$5 Tippr Credit for Every $5 Donation to the American Red Cross

cheapskatLeave a comment

Tippr is offering a $5 Tipper Credit for every $5 donations to the Red Cross made through their site from now till April 13, 2011.

As time passes since the initial wave of destruction and media coverage dwindles, it can be easy to forget about the plight of our friends in Japan. For millions of people trying to pick up the pieces of their lives and put them back together, however, the devastation is ongoing.

Extend your help to Japan; your $5 donation to the American Red Cross can help someone like you rebuild a life in the wake of one of history’s most terrible disasters, and go toward long-term recovery efforts for residents of Japan’s northern coast.

Please donate if you can, your help is much appreciated.

And remember you can still donate to the Red Cross through iTunes on your computer, iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to aid in the Japanese disaster relief efforts and help those affected by the earthquake in Japan and tsunami throughout the Pacific.

LivingSocial wants to lend a helping hand, so they are going to match your donations from now till tomorrow (March 17, 2011) 12 pm. For each $5 donation through this offer, they will also donate $5 to the American Red Cross Japan Earthquake and Pacific Tsunami fund.

Due to Friday’s 9.0-magnitude earthquake, tsunami, and subsequent after shocks, Japan is suffering from what its prime minister is calling the “worst crisis since WWII.” The country’s northern coast has been totally devastated, leaving the land and the people in ruins. Our thoughts go out to everyone affected by this tragedy, and hope that by merging our efforts with yours and working directly with the American Red Cross, we can help with immediate aid and long-term recovery plans in Japan.

Please donate if you can, your help is much appreciated.

And remember you can still text redcross to 90999 from any wireless carrier in the USA to donate $10 to support the Red Cross disaster relief efforts to help those affected by the earthquake in Japan and tsunami throughout the Pacific. The one time donation will be added to your monthly wireless bill. Most carriers are also wieving the cost of the text.
