Give Hope

I wanted to share with all of you an email I just received from Sarah B, a former Peace Corps Mauritania volunteer with me.  I trust her and I trust the Haiti-Micah Project and would like to encourage those with the financial capacity, to consider a gift to the Haiti-Micah Project to help the hundreds of thousands of people in Haiti who were effected by this devastating earthquake.  




Hi everyone,

We all know Haiti has been dealt a bad hand.  She was just emerging
from decades of bad governance and damage from successive
hurricanes-and now the earthquake.  I volunteer with an organization
that works in Haiti. The Haiti-Micah Project (www.haiti-micah.org) has
a feeding program in a town not far from Port-au-Prince. The board
just approved increased funding so we can support the refugees walking
in from the capital. Because supplies to outlying areas can't make it
through right now, there is price gouging on available supplies (gas
is up to $100 a gallon).

The direct effects of the earthquake were felt mainly in the area of
Port-au-Prince, but the indirect effects are already at play in the
central plateau region and beyond.  Haiti-Micah actually began in
response to a similar refugee situation in the central plateau after
2004’s Hurricane Jeanne.

All donations to Haiti-Micah in the next few months are going to
emergency relief.

Haiti-Micah's fundraising board is volunteer so we have no
administrative costs-literally everything goes directly to Haiti.  I
would love to answer questions and urge you, if you were planning to
give and haven’t already, to consider Haiti-Micah.

Thank you.

Sarah B.
