2.Does the organization asking me to volunteer for a disaster relief mission have the experience to provide proper logistical support, security and, if needed, evacuation?

When evaluating an organization with which you will volunteer for a relief mission, make sure that they have the experience and breadth of capacity for providing logistical support, security and an evacuation plan. There is little sense in your going to help and then requiring resources to care for you.

3.Would sending a cash donation to an organization be a better option?

If you do not have the proper skills or experience and cannot go with an experienced organization, a cash donation to an organization such as the Red Cross or MSF may help the most. Individually collecting and sending equipment and supplies is not recommended, as many professional relief organizations will try to get supplies to the disaster zone and there could be a backlog or delays at the transport hubs which might also have been damaged.
