Re: Request of Donations for the Renovation of Blood Bank
XCommie: Don't mention it. You asked for my help and I did all I could. I don't have many friends and not a big family here. I really wanted to collect much more then I have.
I will not send the money to the bank. Others, I can send the money to Karachi and the cost for me would be around 5-10 dollars.
If this is acceptable to others in the U.S. then I am willing to collect in Texas. From what Arvind said, it is not advisable to send money via the bank at those rates. The donations can be combined and put to affect at a greater advantage if there is a central place in the U.S. where a very afforable venu is present for transfer of funds. I have used such a venu to send money to Karachi and Lahore before. This is a money transfer company licenses by the state. They will notify the person intended to come and collect the funds. The transfer fee, listed above, makes this venue very affordable. XCommie: Let me know if this approach is workable.... as this is the only way I would want to send the money for it's assurance that I will have of safe and complete transfer OR I will send to you.
