A credit card transaction or a registration harldy takes any time,
it takes more for you to decide if you wanna contribute to the act
its means lot more for those rescue organizations trying to help
and for those suffering out there, all they can do is 'HOPE'
The official advice is not to move from the area you are currently in. Until things are considered more stable, it is suggested that you stay local to your house, so as not to overcrowd transportation and disaster relief routes. Heading to the afflicted area will only crowd the situation, putting more pressure on the limited resources they currently have. For the time being, money donations are considered to be the best way you can help.

*Matching Gift: The organization contributes and equivalent of your donor.
That is, the total contribution from the organization would be a double to the accumulated donor amount
But if you can manage Japanese, my personnel recommendation would be
Yahoo or Groupon (The sites are in Japanese) as suggested in the earlier post because they have the *matching gift policy and the money goes to the Japanese Red Cross Society who are the biggest relief workers in Japan.
