A few ways to help in Haiti
January 14th, 2010I don’t need to write anything about the nature of the devastation and loss of human life in Haiti after the earthquake. We’ve all seen the images. There are so many ways to help there right now, you just need to pick one that works for you and do something.
Here are a few options to help with the Haiti relief efforts:
- If you’re in the US, one of the easiest ways to donate is through text messaging. Just text “HAITI” to “90999″ to donate $10 to the Red Cross. The amount will be added to your cell phone bill, and it goes straight to the Red Cross — your cell phone company doesn’t get any of that. You can also donate on their website.
- Donate to Doctors Without Borders to provide much needed medical supplies and relief.
- Donate to Partners in Health – another option to provide medical supplies and relief.
- Another good option is Global Giving – they have tons of ways to donate on their Haiti Relief page.
Remember that every little bit helps. Like Mother Teresa said: If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
