Regarding Hurricane damage:
Is it possible to donate to Red Cross to help folks who lost homes etc. in Puerto Escondido? I read about donating at the red cross in town but what about donating from afar?

I just spoke with the Red Cross. If you would like to donate, mail a check or money order with a quick note specifying that you would like the funds to go to the disaster relief in Puerto Escondido:
American Red Cross, PO Box 97089, Washington, DC 20090-7089

Is it considered a "state of emergency" in Puerto Escondido right now - no water etc.?

Many are homeless and without food, electricity, and drinking water The People of Puerto need your help.The local Red Cross in Puerto Escondido is asking for donations of various foods for families affected by Hurricane Carlotta. Donations can be made at the Red Cross on 7a Norte or at the office of El Sol de la Costa, 3a Poniente, #204, at the corner of 1a Sur. Among the items needed are water, canned tuna, beans, rice, sugar, salt and sopa de pasta.
Also I am running the online fund raising campaign on facebook for the Puerto Escondido Lifeguard Service who are also accepting cash donations online to help re-establish the Puerto Escondido Lifeguard Service, All 8 lifeguard watch towers were destroyed by Carlotta and they need financial donations to their hurricane relief fund for the Puerto Escondido Lifeguard Service to get re-established right away to keep the beaches safe. We are also posting information on red cross and other community agencies that need help down there,
Our facebook page is posting many photo's, video's, and a paypal account for the Lifeguard Service to accept donations online from afar, you can find us on facebook with all the information, photo's, and video available as it comes in.

I am contacting my local Red Cross chapter today to find out more info on how Americans can make Red Cross donations from USA to go directly to Puerto Escondido Red Cross chapter. I will post that info on the "Hurricane Carlotta Relief Fund for Puerto Escondido Lifeguard Service" facebook page and will come back here and post it here to.
