Donate money. If you're able to donate money, these organizations can help people affected by natural disasters:

UNICEF, or (800) 4UNICEF
But what if you can't afford to make a donation? Helping doesn't have to mean spending money. Here are some other things you can do:
Organize a school fundraiser. Talk with your teacher or school administrators about starting school-based activities to raise money or supplies. If you're organizing a donation drive, check with the groups first to be sure they need the items you plan to send. Sometimes they get too many donations and have to spend money storing or handling the excess items.
Organize a community event. Talk to your place of worship or a local community center (like the YMCA) about organizing a walk, run, bake sale, or other activity to raise money.
Donate clothes, food, or other items. Check with your local community center or place of worship to find out whether you can drop off donations or if there's another way you can contribute. (Again, it's a good idea to check with the organizations to be sure they need the things you plan to send.)
