Help Haiti

On January 12, 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti. Lives were lost, children orphaned, and homes destroyed.

Here are a few ways you can donate to aid recovery efforts:

Text
  • Text “HAITI” to 90999 to make a $10.00 donation to the American Red Cross.
  • Text “YELE” to 501501 to make a $5.00 donation to Yele Haiti’s Earthquake Relief efforts. Yele is a grassroots organization started by musician Wyclef Jean, a native of Haiti.
  • Text "HAITI" to 45678 to make a $5.00 donation to the Salvation Army.
Online
  • Google has a page set up so you can donate directly to UNICEF and CARE. CBS News also has a list of charitable organizations that offer aid to Haiti.

Thanks for info re how we can help the unfortunate people of Haiti. My mother's home health aide is a Haitian-American and her brother & his wife live there & she has not been able to ascertain if they are OK. I can't image how awful that must be....
