Emergency Relief Desperately Needed for Haiti

The worst earthquake in 200 years has just struck the poorest nation in our hemisphere. An immediate and powerful response is critical. Oxfam is not the only experienced group rushing aid to the area, but it's one I can vouch for as a former employee. Please help if you can.

It's hard to come up with the right words when something like this happens.

Though, it's nice to know how much 'social' media has helped in this situation. The word has gone out fast and people are putting up money just as fast. But I know it will be many many years before there's any kind of semblance there. It's just very sad.

You are right, there are a lot of experienced groups out there right now. But, I do thank you for putting up a link for Oxfam.

Take care,

As Liz said before it is hard to come up with the right words when something like this happens.
And I appreciate that posted about it.
But I'm afraid that there will be riots soon and that will hinder the people who would like to help.
