Help Out Haiti

The very first post on this blog talked about an amazing group of young leaders we met from Haiti and the Dominican Republic (pictured above). Since the devastating earthquake earlier this week, this group has been in my mind much. Our University is anticipating an announcement soon on the university-wide response to offer aid. Several groups have already jumped in to action. For example, all blood donations in today's campus blood drive will support the cause.
The Office of Ethnic Programs and Services is accepting donations through next week that will go to aid the survivors.
Holly, a friend of RAPP, has posted on-line links to several organizations that need support in their aid work:
Doctors Without Borders
Healing Arts Missions
International Childcare USA
Oxfam International
Partners in Health
The Red Cross
UNICEF
YéleHaiti
