Red Cross accepting donations for the Chile earthquake

Over two million people have been affected by this weekend's devastating earthquake in Chile and the Thunder Bay Branch of the Canadian Red Cross is open for donations. Fund Development Manager Rob Zuback says the situation in Chile isn't as dire as it was in Haiti since the infrastructure situation is far more advanced in Chile. Zuback says so far the Chilean government hasn't request foreign aid but donations are being accepted online.
