Re: Haiti Relief
I am donating. We are very stressed at work. Lots of colleagues lost their lives.
I might volunteer too. I haven't decided where though. It is all so sad!!

Such a terrible tragedy...I can't even imagine what these poor people are going through. Hopefully, none of us will ever have to know.
Jenn, is there a drop-off location for Staten Island? Thanks...
I just found out my midwife's mother was killed in the earthquake. She has to go down there to bring back her father. It's just absolutely terrible and heartbreaking. Thanks for posting this list.
Hi Bonnie, I couldn't find a location for Staten Island. Right now the Red Cross is only accepting monetary donations.
