LETTER FROM ST. BONIFACE HAITI FOUNDATION:
Dear Friends of Haiti:
Haiti has been hit by the first large earthquake in 240 years. The enormity of the effects of this devastating 7.0 quake are only barely understood at this time. Thousands may have been killed and tens of thousands left homeless. This is a moment in which your solidarity is of critical importance. Haiti's grassroots movement - including labor unions, women's groups, educators and human rights activists, support committees for prisoners, and agricultural cooperatives - will attempt to funnel needed aid to those most hit by the earthquake. Grassroots organizers are doing what they can - with the most limited of funds - to make a difference. Please take this chance to lend them your support.
This is a time for all of us to act.
What Can You Do?
We urge you to contribute generously, not only for this immediate crisis, but in order to support the long-run development of human rights, sustainable agriculture and economic justice in Haiti. During this period, if you or anyone you know are planning to make a donation to assist those in need, please consider SBHf. Donations will be forwarded to our partners on the ground to help them rebuild what has been destroyed.
In solidarity with the Haitian people,
Nannette M. Canniff
President/CEO
St. Boniface Haiti Foundation
