Contribute to Albania's Cause

There are simply no words on describing the incidents/deaths that have been going recently in Albania! There are currently more than 50 killed people and 500 hundred injures due to the recent earthquakes!

Cities like Durrës, Thuman, Lac, Fushë-Krujë have hundreds of destroyed buildings with residents without a place where to live! Many countries are currently helping in this chaos that we're facing.

**Everyone is trying to help bit by bit. **

My friend has currently opened a gofundme aswell for non-speaking albanian people who wish to contribute:

We have been trying to get multiple funds and support in multiple ways! Without a doubt without Kosovo's help right now, this would have been a nightmare for these people!

As we speak there is still undergoing 'smaller' earthquakes.

    Be careful with GoFundMe for general charity fundraising, who the hell is Ardit Mezaj? How will the dispersing be accouted for? What cough "expenses" will he deduct?

    Better to donate through a registered charity, do your research regarding how much makes it to cause and how comfortable you are with awareness vs action ratios.

    These personal fundraising often turn out to be a scam, or at best "i had to deduct expenses for travel, lodging, flights, iphone x, black friday vps, abandonware project domain name renewals, marketing expertise" and so on..

    Bebe Rexha ? Who the hell is she?

    Update: oh its a celebrity or someone using a celebrity names, well these have turned well before, cough haiti

    I will be flying to Albania on December 2nd to personally make sure this money gets to the Albanian people who need it most - those who need food, water, and their homes rebuilt

    I bet.. Zero accountability, I doubt she will be in seat 79G if she actually exists..

    And there hundreds on facebook and gullable people everywhere

    DAMN

  • @fpmagic may not have been delicate in his choice of words, but he's right that there's an accountability issue
