Rrok, I'd just add the "rider" that it would be best to check first because at some stages of the relief effort, the aid agencies were pleading with people in radio interviews not to send goods because trucks, containers, unpacking etc were tying up access, road space and workers' time at a point in the process where there were more urgent things - they had actualy had to send some goods back, at least for the time being. You make an excellent point but donors should perhaps check with the organisation they're planning to donate the goods to first.
