Hi
I pulled this info from another site and felt it was important enough to add to my blog. If you have the means to help even a little please help or pass this info on.

A magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti yesterday, and Haitian Prime Minister Jean Max Bellerive estimates as many as 100,000 people may be dead. The epicenter of the quake was just 10 miles from the capital Port-au-Prince, causing widespread devastation in this island nation. The American Red Cross estimates three million people are affected.

Haiti is the poorest country in the Americas, and the Haitian people desperately need our help now.

The best way for you to help the people of Haiti is to donate to a well-respected charity with experience in medical and disaster relief. Haiti needs immediate assistance, and these organizations already have teams in place to assess the damage and provide the emergency medical care, food, clean water and shelter that people need.
