Haitian Earthquake Relief


Unless you've been living under a rock the past couple of days, you're aware that there was a massive earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale followed by several aftershocks averaging around 5.0 that savaged the nation of Haiti, already the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere. Thousands are dead, millions are homeless and the people have only just begun to attempt to rebuild.

And so 40% of all proceeds this week will go to Yele Haiti, an organization founded by Wyclef Jean, musician and humanitarian from Haiti who's been active and vocal about the plight of his people for several years. You can also donate $5 by texting YELE to 501501 or get more info by visiting www.yele.org. And the thing I like to see best when giving a donation: 100% of all donations to Yele Haiti actually go to the people!

Thank you in advance for you donations and help and may I say a pox on Pat Robertson, literally may a big ole pox land all over your senile bigoted tiny brained head! There's a special extra hot, ultra humid, funky, moldy place in Hell for people like him.
