"I am starting a fund to help out the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. The Red Cross has a dedicated relief effort and the funds would be directed there. I will start it out with a hundred bucks and I hope that together we can collect a meaningful amount to help these people who have next to nothing. I will set up a collection at reception or you can come see me and I will update everyone as to the amount we collect. We are so blessed here and even if you don’t have a lot of extra cash a small donation goes a long way as the average annual income in Haiti is 400.00 U.S."
