Giving to disaster relief is as easy as your nearest ATM | StarTribune.com: "Wells Fargo customers logging into ATM machines this month found a new option on their screens. Next to the box that says 'Deposit Cash' is one saying 'Donate to Charity.'

Donate they did. In just 10 days, the ubiquitous ATM machines collected more than $1 million for Japan relief efforts by the American Red Cross. The experiment marks the first time ATM machines have been used nationwide -- by any bank -- to raise money for a charity, say national banking officials."
