Bullock, whose screen credits include "Miss Congeniality," "While You Were Sleeping" and "Speed," contacted the American Red Cross last week, the organization said Monday. She also donated $1 million after the Sept. 11 terror attacks.



"At this critical time, I am grateful to Sandra Bullock for once again demonstrating her leadership, compassion and belief in our global humanitarian mission," said American Red Cross President and Chief Executive Officer Marsha Evans in a statement. "Sandra continues to enable our lifesaving work and is a model for personal generosity."

I dunno, I was wondering the same thing, I planned to send them to some adress in New York I saw at the Unicef website but my town's goverment is collecting everything at a local church..really weird but I guess that'll be my easiest option.

hey vintageprincess...i heard that they prefer that aid agencies prefer that we give $ instead of food and clothes because sending over such items costs more money than its worth...

 

[sugarpea]

[Kimkhuu]

Now I have even more respect for Sandra.

 

[wyatt.]

Thanks for the info I will probably still end up donating them to another charity I guess...and give money to Tsunami for them to use it the best way!
