Many organisations are also shifting towards long-term assistance, rebuilding and rehabilitation efforts.
The National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre is the national focus for this information exchange. Please refer to the NVPC webpage. You can also call them at: 6416-6655 (24-hr Hotline) or 6325-0965 (Monday to Fri, 9am - 6pm). You can also email enquiries, or contribute new information and updates to them at
The Habitatnews Tsunami Relief webpage that was setup from 27 Dec 2004 will now point to the NVPC page instead. Thanks to all the volunteers who responded very quickly, donating cash and supplies, sorted, packed and loaded supplies at collection sites, organised collections, ventured out to the region to help, and sent back reports to keep the webpage well updated, even to the hour. And to the bloggers and webpages that helped alert poeple to this information.
