2008四川地震海外華人募捐會
同胞們！2008年5月12日，在我們祖國的四川省，發生了8級的大地震，已經奪去了上萬人的生命。

我們的國家又一次進入了一個危急時刻，我們在海外的赤子，責無旁貸地在這個時刻再次站出來！救助我們的同胞兄弟姐妹。我們無法前往災區，在瓦礫和廢墟之中搶救我們的同胞，除了在這裡默默祈禱，我們還希望能通過互聯網，為那些直面災難的同胞盡一份菲薄之力，為那些在第一線搶險救災的勇士們提供一點小小的幫助。1976年7月，一場大地震將睡夢中的唐山摧毀。全國人民與唐山人民一起，將無數的生命拯救，將一座城市從廢墟之中重建。今天，我們更有能力，與四川災區的人民一起，共同渡過難關。

　　我們的同胞正經歷着悲傷、死亡、喪失親人、無家可歸等等我們無法想象的災難與痛苦。我們無法為他們分擔着一切，但卻有能力給他們一些幫助。在五月的川西，陰雨伴隨地震降臨，在震後的汶川，　　大地布滿了傷痕。在這個時候，一頂擋風的帳篷，一床禦寒的被褥，一碗熱乎的麵條，一句真誠的問候，對於災區人民來說也許就是希望，就是明天。我們的祖國，我們的同胞，曾經歷無數的苦難。今天，我們再也沒有理由漠視這一切，同胞們！網友們！讓我們一起伸出雙手，與災區人民共同度過這暗夜吧！血濃於水，今夜，讓我們都做四川人！

硅谷清華聯網SVTN，合法移民會LIA和MITBBS.COM 這次共同發起對我們四川同胞的救助捐款活動，SVNT，LIA是在加利福尼亞註冊的非盈利組織，具有IRS 501 (c) (3) ，我們會實時更新捐款情況和具體捐款細節，所有的捐款都會100%轉給中國紅十字會。
我們的捐款目的是在最快的時間把錢投入到災區，見到效果，我們認為現在國內，在2星期後東西基本會到位，我門要做的是在這之前把錢交給動作最快的組織，在幾個星期後，如果還有捐款，我們會負責把捐款送給災區的重建，比如四川小學校的重建，兒童的物品採購等。
