Yesterday we had a 7.1 magnitude earthquake in Mexico City. It's a huge disaster. There are several collapsed buildings. It took me until today to post this because I've been outside helping friends and people in general.
The above picture is from an elementary school and kindergarten that collapsed and several children died. As I am writing this, they are still trying to rescue at least one little girl that they have contacted, but it's not easy.

The above video is from a university and high school campus in southern Mexico City. At least 5 students died and several are wounded. Some other students haven't been found yet.

This other video gives a better example of the destruction that took place and the rescue efforts by the citizens.
No matter where you are, you can help us overcome this calamity. I was going to set up a bitcoin wallet to receive donations, but I figured it would be better if it was someone elses. And I found out that Bitso, which is the largest bitcoin exchange in Mexico (they do appear in coinmarketcap, I'm not making this up), has setup Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple wallets where you can donate and everything they collect, they will donate each Friday to the Mexican Red Cross. They already had them setup for a different, also devastating earthquake that took place in southern Mexico on September 7th. You can read their blog post here.
The donation wallets are:
Bitcoin (BTC) 1DaHfXsoPfZ2jznJhB62vR3QEVFhhZ2tMR
Ethereum (ETH) 0x88B6021aE4BB9830f2E9D5BB38B83427b9D7ffEc
Ripple (XRP) rEFMdiTbLmZq5ZiMGrWGoyP48DMFqXjNkM [No Destination Tag required]
Bitso will match 50% of all donations for the next 7 days, campaign open 4 weeks.
Please help, every satoshi makes a difference. And please resteemit.
