Unfortunately, it's becoming more and more familiar - a huge tragedy affecting thousands. Fortunately, there are many groups like Team Banzai dedicated to helping their fellow human beings no matter where they are and more fortunately, there are many people willing to donate time and money for these causes. Here's a page of links to various charitable organizations. Give what you can, when you can and try to make this world a better place. Buckaroo would be proud.
