Honestly, I'm giving to the American Red Cross.
It's the fastest way to get money there. They do have a lot of overhead, but they are a large organization, and it takes money to run any large organization. Cash donations have historically been the best way to give. This way they can wire the money immediately, and purchase supplies locally.
In the coming months they will also need clothing donations. Contacting a local Indian temple might be a good way to contribute old clothes you want to get rid of. Most of them should know the channels for these types of contributions within a month or so.
I know, it's a little more than you wanted to know, but I thought I would add it anyway...I'm not an expert on charities, so I'll stop here.
