Whereas, the people of Turkiye and Syria have been devastated by a severe earthquake with a death toll in the tens of thousands, and
Whereas, it is in the national character of Talossans to come to the aid and support of others in their time of need, and
Whereas, the Bureau of Humanitarian Aid and International Development exists for times and needs such as these.
Therefore, the Ziu authorizes the Bureau of Humanitarian Aid and International Development to make a one-time contribution of $50 (USD) to the Syrian Civil Defence (White Helmets) to support local aid efforts.

Can I suggest an equal donation to Syrian Civil Defence (https://www.whitehelmets.org/en/), aka the "White Helmets"?

Miestra, that is a wonderful idea!
@Bråneu Excelsio as a co-sponsor would you be OK with switching the recipient to the Syrian Civil Defence?

This is just a practical question: how a contribution to the Syrian Civil Defence (White Helmets) will be carried out? I don't see any "donate" service on their website, (nor "donation reports" by the way which is essential to be considered in any donation).
That's a good question.
@Miestră Schivă, UrN , do you happen to know?

Here is the donation page to the White Helmets. It also includes a breakdown of how financial contributions are used. https://www.whitehelmets.org/en/
Note this campaign is hosted by the Syria Campaign though.
It seems legit. 8)
The link Brenéir gives is precisely the link that I use for making my personal donations
