No confirmation yet, but watch this space.

The massive earthquake and resulting tsunami that struck Japan on 11 March have caused widespread destruction and suffering, relayed on television screens around the world. More than 8,000 people have died in the disaster, thousands are injured and at least 12,000 are missing. Many people are living in evacuation centres as 14,000 homes have been destroyed and around 100,000 are damaged.

The costs of the relief effort, and of rebuilding the homes and lives of those affected, will be immense. Funds raised will be used towards helping the Japanese people recover from this devastating natural disaster over the coming months and years

In the event that we receive more donations to the Japan Tsunami Appeal than the Japanese Red Cross, International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement can reasonably and efficiently spend any surplus funds will be used to help us prepare for and respond to humanitarian disasters around the world.
