It seems like one way to support the members of the etsy community living in Japan is visit their shops, mark them as favorites and most of all buy from them. I made a treasury of 16 etsy members living, creating, and shipping art from japan to other etsy members around the world. Purchasing something from these shops is a great way to make contact with real people experiencing this disaster as well as a way to send prayers, thoughts. and good KI ( chi). Please leave a comment for these 16 artists at:
