For Earthquake relief in Haiti, text YELE to 501501, and a $5 donaton will be sent to YELE.org
The $5.00 will be added to your phone bill at the end of the month.

Please help!!!!! Many are already dead and many more still trapped. $5.00 added to your phone bill is not too much.


Moderators please don't merge this thread. At least for now. I don't want it to get lost in the middle of another thread. We can post updates here on little ways that we can help. Spread the word. You can make it your facebook status or on twitter.

You can also go directly to yele.org and click on donate


Also
Red Cross needs Creole speaking volunteers for a 24 hour PHONE BANK! CALL B. WILFORD @ 305-776-6900. *also* Medical professionals needed in Haiti. Airlines are working with consulate call 212 697 9767 pass the message!!!!!

Thanks SeanT

Again, I urge you guys to give, if you can. Unless you've seen devastation like this first hand, you can never appreciate the misery in that little country right now.

I wish to add my voice and support to this gesture.

Please let us help these people at the hour of their need.

I am presently less than 2 hour flight away from Haiti.

The devastation is serious, Hospitals, UN building & many business corporation buildings collapsed.

Lots of UN Peace keeping staff are still missing. thousands of people as I type this are still buried under debris.

dead bodies and lots of wounded people seeking attention, with few available helping hands

Please H E L P

Thanks y'all. Let's keep any information we run across coming.


This one is directly from the Red Cross website. I think more people find it easier to just text in their donations. So I am adding this also.

Send a $10 Donation by Texting ‘Haiti’ to 90999. The $10 will be added to your phone bill just like the $5.00 to 501501 with Yele as the message.

yele.org is a nonprofit Hatian organisation. Read my first post. You can donate via text (501501 and text YELE) and I believe you can do it up to 6 times by text. You can also give more by going to the actual site and donating more

This is wonderful news. $2,000,000.00 raised by texting 90999 to donate $10.00 for Haiti. This shows that NOTHING IS TOO SMALL. This is encouraging and I am glad that we are able to be a part of it. Your "little" money counts.

http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/01/13/1-million-in-donations-for-haiti-via-text-message/

Nobody can still gauge the scope of the damage so donations are still being accepted.
