I know that some links are floating around for people interested in donating. I'd just like to point out that I wholeheartedly do not endorse the Salvation Army, as they have a history of denying aid to people who are openly gay. I know that they're heavily involved in the relief efforts and are doing good work here, so money that goes to them is going towards helping us, but personally I cannot support them.
The Red Cross, on the other hand, is also heavily involved in the relief efforts here and I recommend them as a good organisation to donate to, if people are wanting to help. At the moment, money is needed more than food or blood.
