Haiti

My last post was nothing but a link... I was running out to catch a ride but wanted to at least provide a list of organizations through which people could give to relief work in Haiti.

Partners Worldwide sent out an email on the weekend regarding their work in Haiti; here is the text:

Since Tuesday, we have all grieved while hearing reports of the pain and suffering in Haiti. The first 72 hours are critical after an emergency and we are very thankful for the skilled disaster response teams who are working around the clock to meet as many immediate needs as possible.

Leveraging the strengths of our network, Partners Worldwide has established the Haiti Business Recovery Fund. Through our Haitian business partners, we have identified urgent needs that can be met by skilled professionals to help restore and rebuild local businesses that supply critical goods such as clean water, food, medical supplies and temporary housing.

Your contribution will go directly to Haiti Business Recovery and will help to lay the foundation for long-term development and lasting restoration. The Partners Worldwide network is made up of passionate and skilled business professionals so please consider how your experience can make a difference in Haiti.


Your continued prayers, encouragement and financial contributions are deeply appreciated. (Click here to give through Partners Worldwide.)
