How YOU Can Help w/ Disaster Relief in Haiti




As you can see from the video above, rescue/emergency aid workers from all over the U.S. are quickly mobilizing to get to Haiti. Unless you've been hiding under a rock in the Sahara you should be aware of the devastating situation currently unfolding in Haiti after a 7.0 earthquake shook the Port-au-Prince area. For the full story please CLICK HERE. Yes, we all need to pray for those affected, but we can do more than pray. Put your $$$ where your mouth is to help assist with relief efforts. Unfortuately, we can't all physically go and lend a helping hand BUT we can make a small monetary contribution, which will help in major way. There are several ways to donate:

1. Red Cross - Text the word "HAITI" to 90999 & $10 will automatically donated to Red Cross (the donation will be charged to your next phone bill) or CLICK HERE

2. Wyclef Jean's "Yele" Org - Text the word "YELE" to 501 501 & $5 will be donated (again, the donation will be charged to your next phone bill)

3. Habitat for Humanity - Habitat is working to establish shelters for the many who are now homeless in Haiti. CLICK HERE TO DONATE

4. Save the Children - Donations will help provide urgently needed medical attention, safe drinking water, and other necessities.CLICK HERE TO DONATE
