I did the research and I know OCEF is a real charity organization for Chinese in US. I joined OCEF to become a permanent member years ago. Please see below.

Dear supporter of OCEF,

You may already heard the tragic earthquake occurred in Sichuan Province,
China, on May 12, 2008.

As an organization, although focusing on education in rural China, Overseas
China Education Foundation (OCEF) wants to do anything possible to provide
help to the people in that area. An emergency resolution has been passed
regarding this matter by OCEF board on May 15. The resolution states that
OCEF will collect donations from all possible sources, then direct such
donations to reliable charity organization(s) in China, such as Red Cross
Society of China, for the purposes of immediate disaster relief, as well as
post-disaster recovery.

We call for donation for this cause. Your support is sincerely appreciated.

Please also spread the words in your communities so that those who are
willing to help will receive such message. OCEF is a charity organization
under IRS 501(c)(3) article. Donations made to OCEF are eligible for tax
exemption.

Donations can be made in any of these forms:

-- You may send personal check, Money Order, or Cashier Check made to
Overseas China Education Foundation to the following address:

Overseas China Education Foundation
P. O. Box 772436
Houston, Texas 77215-2436, USA

-- You may use your credit card to make a donation through the following
link at Justgive.org (Justgive.org will charge a fee of 3%, that means OCEF
will receive 97% of whatever you donate):

-- You may use Paypal to send money to account paypal@ocef.org (Paypal
usually charge a fee of no more than 2.5%, we are in negotiation with
Paypal for a fee waiver)

Please make a note on the donation that this is for "2008 Sichuan" or
"China Earthquake". If you prefer to remain anonymous, please make a note
on the donation as well. Otherwise, we'll publish all the donations with
donors' names in a timely fashion.

We also set up a web space at http://www.ocef.org/sichuan2008 for flexible
and instant information publishing and sharing of this donation drive (Most
contents are in Chinese language, including this letter in Chinese). Formal
announcements will still be published on http://www.ocef.org/.

If you have any questions, please send email to 2008sichuan@ocef.org, or
call (281)-506-2018 to leave a voice message.

We thank you for your caring and kindness.
