haiti relief efforts...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in light of the devastating earthquake in haiti, i urge everyone to become part of the relief effort. whether you physically go and help out, get on your knees and pray, financially support ground efforts, or help spread awareness, please, please, please get involved. there's no way to prevent natural disasters, but that doesn't mean we should remain idle in the aftermath.

the following are great ways to get involved:
  • doctors without borders: you can donate any amount you wish. http://doctorswithoutborders.org/
  • you can text "HAITI" to 90999 to donate $10 (charged to your phone bill.) to the Red Cross relief efforts and/or go to http://www.redcross.org to donate to the International Response Fund.
  • Text "Yele" to 501501 to donate $5 to the Haiti relief efforts (charged to your phone bill.)
MSNBC has also compiled a list of organizations that you can get involved with.

praying for all those affected,
peace.
