If you haven't yet made a donation to the relief efforts in Haiti after the quake that hit Port-Au-Prince, please consider doing so. Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, and all reports suggest that pre-existing emergency response infrastructure in the country has been destroyed. In other words, the majority of supplies and personnel will need to be transported into the country from abroad.
Feel free to do your own homework on charities doing the most good immediately in Haiti (check out www.charitynavigator.org), but here are two organizations Katie and I recommend: Doctors Without Borders and World Vision. The links below will take you directly to their websites should you choose to donate to their Haiti relief efforts.
