Help the people of Haiti!

Posted by: fracas on January 14 @ 9:11 pm

I’m listening to this beautiful Cuban son… Morenita by La Orquesta Magica de la Habana. And I’m reading about the earthquake on Haiti. Perhaps one is so used to blocking images of poor, destitute, helpless… It’s so far away to once own safety. But lately I have forced myself to look a second time…not just read the headlines, the appeals from secretary of states and government heads. To look beyond all of that…it doesn’t feel good.
I made a donation to Medicine Sans Frontieres who work actively with relief efforts for the Haitian people. A small contribution, insignificant to myself, but every little counts right? So if you feel like adding a true bit of value on a Thursday evening, go to www.msf.org/msfinternational/donations and select your country. It’s surprisingly easy and 5 minutes later you will feel a little bit better…..and hopefully someone else too.
