Help for Haiti

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

I’m sure that many of you have already contributed in one way or another to aid in the Haiti catastrophic earthquakes.  However, if you’ve not done that yet, please consider pledging your financial support.  Just a $40 donation will provide a family with the basic necessities (food, bottled water, healthcare kits, et cetera) for 10 days.  We take what we’ve been blessed with for granted, and this is an opportunity to share our good fortune with those in dire need. 

You can donate in support of the relief effort in Haiti at www.redcross.org or by calling 1-800-REDCROSS, or mobile donors can text “Haiti” to 90999 to make a contribution.
