BOB ABERNETHY, anchor: One of the many religious organizations helping the victims of the tsunami disaster is the Christian group World Vision, which regularly has 22,000 people on staff in 100 countries, among them most of those hit hardest by the tsunami. Jules Frost is World Vision's U.S. director for emergency response. Welcome.

JULES FROST (U.S. Director for Emergency Response, World Vision): Thank you.

ABERNETHY: Has enough money been pledged -- is enough money available to do the job that needs to be done?

Ms. FROST: The world has been extremely generous. The government donors have had an outpouring in pledges that they've made. We've heard this in the last week. Next week when they go to Geneva, we really need everybody to make good on those pledges in order to meet the needs of these devastated countries.

ABERNETHY: And next week in Geneva is a meeting of the donors who have pledged the money?

Ms. FROST: Correct. There will be an international donor conference.

ABERNETHY: And in the past they haven't always come up with the money they've pledged?

Ms. FROST: That's true. And in order to meet the rebuilding needs as well as the immediate needs, it's going to be critical for those governments to be able to make good on those pledges.

ABERNETHY: If they do make good on them, if the money does come, will that mean that there can be enough coordination in South Asia so that the aid that is needed can really get to the people who need it in time?

Ms. FROST: That's a very good question. Given the magnitude of this disaster, the number of countries that have been hit, coordination is crucial. And it's complicated. A disaster is a disaster. Things don't always work as we hope. So ... but I am confident with the UN and the international agencies on the ground that we will be able to work out this coordination -- to make sure those in the most need get what they need in the right time.
