In lieu of what would have been this week’s post, instead of creating a promotion and donation proceeds to the relief effort, I decided instead to share links to organizations assisting with relief efforts in Haiti after the earthquake that devastated the country this week. Please give what you can afford to spare to help the people of Haiti, one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere … a country where people live on $2.00 or less per day, have an 80% illiteracy rate, and lack so many of the things we take for granted. Many of these links came directly from either WFAA Channel 8, abcnews.com or from charitable organizations I am on the mailing lists of. And whether or not you’re able to give right now, pray and send positive thoughts to all those trapped or injuried, the families who’ve lost loved ones, and for the rescue and relief workers. They can use every single prayer and positive thought possible right now.

American Red Cross

Feed the Children

UNICEF

Operation USA

Oxfam

Mercy Corps

Salvation Army

Doctors Without Borders

Interaction.org also has a list of charities as well, including many faith-based organizations.

I can’t get your twitter or facebook share buttons to work… but I’m passing this on in both places. Thanks for the links…. I also found this on Gear Live: Gear Live & Friends will match your Haiti SMS donations: http://bit.ly/74MolE #haiti
