I made (this Christmas Eve, 2022, in the British Isles) a £5 donation ($6.10 USD) to the UK PayPal Giving Fund for the Disasters Emergency Committee Pakistan Floods. A screenshot shows the numbered steps I took.

You might want to donate also, having been inspired to read my article (A guide to radio communications technologies for Linux computing for Urdu) on how HAM Radio can help the floods and also Afghanistan with a RaspberryPi for SDR (Software Defined Radio) using a RTL2832U dongle and various open-source software like Soapy-Remote-Server, and when plugging in (the USB ports of a Raspberry Pi3b+ using GuvcView software and "cheese") a webcam (costing btween £1 and $5 USD), with a built-in microphone like a Playstation2-Eyetoy but a better (usb-converted) microphone can help too. You can get there by this link, although, first of all, I should say I logged into Paypal.

This article is to help people who might want to do the same such as donations or similar. For it to be even more overtly like mutually beneficial collaboration (so you can get something additionally nice out of it in terms of learning about technology and documentation), learning something for yourself while you are at it (donating) such as how to use linux or HAM Radio or First-Aid creative-commons health books, I have also shown how I learned a bit about linux and open-source software whilst donating to those also. The topics can be said to pertain to each other in theright context such as the usage of HAM Radio, such that also a linux computer can use SDR (Software Defined Radio) to communicate in emergency and also spread free learning or knowledge about the physics of HAM Radio such as waves and angles (mathematics) or signal propagation. I totally recommened using a raspberry-pi3b (or pi3b+) with SciLab and a webcame (sony PS2 eyetoy) and an RTL2832U USB dongle but also it is worth learning some linux on an old AMd64 PC with at least 2GB RAM, and more like 4GB RAM or more. A dualcore CPU can be fine as can a quadcore PC but do be aware that a quadcore might have a UEFI BIOS instead of a legacy BIOS and so learn more about installing linux (on the UBCD forums) by asking the people there questions on how to do so and be prepared to take good clear digital-photos of your computer screen (including the BIOS) when uploading images to the website UBCD forum. It can also help you (using a flashlight torch) to photograph the inside of your PC case (when switched-off, unplugged at the mains, following saefty and static precautions) so as to identify your componets and wiring configurations and to show the Motherboard model numbers and codes, and quite possibly thet FCC-ID which is often printed between the PCI (or PCI-e) slots so as to serve as a unique identifer oer motherboard model number and brand-name manufacturer. Share such hints and tips with others, making friends along the way.

To be knowledgeable about how your study of HAM Radio or Linux can help the people communicating around the Pakistan Floods (and other regions like Afghanistan), you may seek self-improvement as you learn about how to get linux via a torrent file and how to use a CD-Writer (and other knowledge) in this (German and English language) article linked below (German and English... Deutschland macht gute Technologien wie Knoppix Linux). Also, learn about how to use linux (and prepare your amd64 PC) using Version 5.3.8 ultimatebootcd such as to backup data and recover lost data and to partitition drives or clone an HDD (all of which can be discovered by reading and talking on the UBCD forums), and so all that information can be seen on the article linked below as "Wifi Bandwidth Management Hong Kong".

My comment has no hate in it and I do no harm. I am not appalled or afraid, boasting or envying or complaining... Just saying. Psalms23: Giving thanks and praise to the Lord and peace and love. Also, I'd say Matthew6.
