The 7.0 earthquake that hit Port-Au-Prince, Haiti on Tuesday, January 12th caused incalcuable damage to the city. Early estimates place death tolls in excess of 100,000 people. Like many compassionate people, you might be seeking to make a donation to a non-profit organization that is responding to the crisis. Certainly, you will want to see your donation dollars streched as far as possible and see that your money actually makes it to the affected areas. With that in mind, we suggest that you visit the Charity Navigator website to help you make your decision. Specifically, visit the page, "Help the Victims of the Haiti Earthquake." We also recommend that you research "Tips for Giving in Times of Crisis" and their guide to "Protecting Yourself From Online Scams." Your heart is in the right place, now make sure that your money goes to the right place, too. |
