Tsunami/finding people

[faith]

BBC World News online had posted a UK phone number for finding people in Japan: check their website.  Judging from past history, foreign civilians trying to come here to "help" will be turned back at the airport.
Domestic phone service is still largely out, altho a call came thru from London on my landline here in Kansai, which is undamaged.  Shocks of up to 5 continue at the moment in the NE, but evacuation & relief work is highly organized, and some transpo is running.  It may take a few days to contact your friends from abroad.  I still cannot reach Tokyo on either cell or landline, but e-mail seems OK.

Re: finding people.


A friend posted a notice on on Facebook about Google Finder, localized for this earthquake. .It seems to be accessible in Japanese at http://japan.person-finder.appspot.com/?lang=ja. (And of course in English.)

I am also interested in volunteering to help there. My heart, love, and support reaches out for the people of Japan. Hope all is easy and normal in a short time!

Does anyone know of any volunteer groups that could go over there somehow and help out. I have friends in Sendai I have no way of reaching.
