Been trying to gather help for Haiti. So far we collected about 6000 USD and several kilos of clothings. Are you all right?

Hi,

I can finally breath a little. I almost went insane. I am in Miami but my 8 years old daughter was there and I was unable to get in touch. Finally I got her last night and both her mother and her were able to go to the Dominican Republic today and will be flying to Miami tomorrow.

Thanks for asking.

We are up to 15000 USD now. We plan to send it to The Girl Scout of Haiti to ensure maximum distribution.

Wow. I am sure that will be greatly appreciated. Make sure that they are still around because a lot of organizations collapsed/disappeared with those events

Can you try to find the address of the Boy Scout of Haiti? We need it ASAP!

That's going to be hard.

In normal times they don't have a phone book. With all that's happening now, no roads, no communications ... Specially I lost 2 haitiwebs moderators

Sorry. You better off sending money to an organization such as the Red Cross or something.

Will do that.

Definitely is better.

A - There are no local structures left, not even at the government level.

B - 90% of Haitian organizations are corrupt.

International organizations are guaranteed to put your money in good use.

On a good note, my kid is with me. So I'll be resuming work as normal starting tomorrow.
