Parts of Cape Town are experiencing severe flooding, and this is hitting poorer areas especially hard. Now is a good time to donate some money, if you have some to spare. Decision paralysis? My suggestions: Gift of the Givers -- they're my go-to organisation for disaster response donations. You can make a general donation or specify where and how you want the money to be used. https://giftofthegivers.org/donate-online/ PEP Stores Lay By Buddy -- not disaster-specific, but a lot of people are going to have to replace a lot of clothes and other essentials. https://www.pepstores.com/pages/lay-by-buddy Cape of Good Hope SPCA -- they don't just deal with strays; they also provide emergency and veterinary assistance to people who can't afford to pay for it. They're currently also rescuing farm animals (whose loss would have not just a psychological but also a financial impact on their people). https://capespca.co.za/flood-crisis-response-be-their-lifeline/
