A commenter asked for a posting on the quake.
The Gulf News has a good roundup of the UAE's response thus far, both governmental and nongovernmental.
I know that where I work several groups are making it easy to make financial contributions to well-respected relief agencies.
Chan’ad Bahraini offers suggestions here on how to help. California Yankee has suggestions here.

The UAE government should be given mad props for their generosity.
they gave 100$ million US dollars, as opposed to the australian government who gave 1/200th of that amount, or not even, they did it in australian currency.
Thank you John B. Chilton for the post
God bless the govt of UAE for their timely help.
... And ofcourse anyone can go online to websites like mercycorps.org and msf.org to make an online donation
As an emarati, I believe that even 100 million dollars is not enough, I was thinking more like 1/2 billion dollars should be sent to pakistan, and another half a billion in interest free loans to the families that want to rebuild their homes. Our allies deserve no less.
