The Pope ask for aid...
I heard on the news today that Pope John Paul II was calling on people to aid the effort involving those suffering and killed by the Tsunami/Earthquake in Southeast Asia.
What are all the good CATHOLIC charities to give to that are helping this cause that I could actually trust with my money???

Re: The Pope ask for aid...
Many Catholics are confused about the difference between Catholic Charities and Catholic Relief Services. Basically Catholic Charities helps people in need in the US, Catholic Relief Services helps people in need outside the US.
So, if you want to help victims of the tsunami, Catholic Relief Services is the place to go:
www.catholicrelief.org
1-800-736-3467
Catholic Relief Services
Tsunami Emergency Relief Fund
P.O. Box 17090
Baltimore, MD 21203-7090
