Hi I contacted the person who I won the auction from and forwarded my confirmation email to them. Was I still supposed to post the confirmation to you as well ? I can do so immediately where can I send my confirmation email? Sorry my region has gotten a lot of snow lately and Internet acess at home and work has been touch and go. But I did donate the day my auction ended. Please help!
They should have posted to the Donation Confirmation Station. You don't have to go through all million posts there to find it, though - we'll let you know if you're not on the Confirmed list on Sunday or Monday and we can fix everything then.
That is super-fantastic, but we know we are going to technically undercount - a lot of people rounded up or gave more than they pledged, etc. plus there were matching funds from offices and governments and randomly fantastic third parties. So we'll never have an exactly precise count - what we're trying for is a way to determine the minimum that's going to help Haiti from what's gone on here.

I sent my confirmation to the help_haiti email adress and to the offeror via a LiveJournal PM. I didn't get a reply email by the mods to my confirmation, so I don't know whether you got it at all.
Is it suficient that the offeror has the confirmation or do I need to do something else?

If the offeror (a) has the confirmation and (b) posted a reply on the Donation Confirmtion Station, then you're all set. And we'll be letting people know if we don't have their confirmation once we've gone through everything this weekend.
I'm looking forward to the next auction later this month! I'd like to suggest another charity/V-gift that I think would be a good one to add to the list as a payment option for the next auction.
Before the earthquake, LJ was offering another charitable V-Gift, the WSPA Furry Friends V-Gift for $2.99. I checked out the WSPA and discovered that they are doing what they can to help animals in Haiti.
Obviously, animals aren't more important than people. But In this world where we are all connected, animals can form an important part of our support system, and we are a part of theirs. I defy anyone to look at this picture and not want to help.
In short, the animal-lovers among us would probably appreciate the ability to purchase the WSPA V-Gift to pay for their auctions. I haven't done any research on the WSPA, but I hope LJ has. If they turn out not to be an acceptable charity for some reason, perhaps suggestions for an alternative charity that supports animals might be solicited?
