Dear Friends in Resistance,
This month we are having a first ever
Humanitarian Ingress First Saturday in Croatia.As you may know, strong earthquake has hit Petrinja, Glina and Sisak 2 days before New year. Help is needed for volunteers from Croatian Red Cross to keep providing services to people that lost their homes.
Many of the destroyed houses belong to small family farms and people just can't leave their ruined homes, so now they are living in housing containers.
How can Ingress community help?
By donating money directly is now best, Croatians and Europeans have sent clothes, food and other first-minute necesities and there is no need for immediate aid in food and clothes now.
But money is needed for repairs as volonteers and many companies are working for free, building materials still have to be bought.
As options I (@mrki008) have chosen portal cinipravustvar that is Crowd donation platform that does not charge any cost - you donate 75 kuna (10 eur) and it goes directly to Red Cross Croatia. No credit card fees or SWIFT banking cost - those are covered by platform!
https://cinipravustvar.hr/izazov/ingress-first-saturday-community-challenge/26953/GoFundMe charges 4% for donations and does not provide verification where the money really goes to, 2 big no for them.
Only downside is that you are paying in Croatain Kuna (7,5 kuna = 1€) (6 kn = 1$), so, if you want to donate 20$ type in 120 kuna.
