Hi everyone,
It seems you can pay with credit card (even foreign ones - Visa or Master) on the websites of China Red Cross and Chinese Red Cross Society. However, I attempted to pay on both sites with my master and visa card, but both was rejected. It can be two reasons: the server is too busy or my cards were not accepted for the online payment (on these websites). I may try again today. If any of you know any other ways, please let me know...thanks a lot.
Best wishes,

Hi,
I would like to make a donation to the Chinese Red Cross, some of my colleagues
also want to do that. However, could anyone shed light on how I can technically
transfer the money to the Chinese bank account (my bank is the Natwest)?
Thanks.
Best wishes,
Yik Chan
