Haiti

by Tony Dayoub

With some reports estimating that the death toll in Haiti could be upwards of 100,000, I would like to ask all my readers to think about donating something, anything, to aid in disaster relief for what is—according to ABC News—the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The easiest donation I ever made was one I made this morning, where I texted HAITI to 90999 to donate $10 to the International Federation of the Red Cross Relief Efforts.


Unfortunately, I must issue a disclaimer: be careful... the scammers are out in force taking advantage of this sad situation. Forbes has listed a number of reputable charities that are mobilizing to provide assistance to Haiti.

Please consider giving something to aid in the relief effort.
