Unless you’ve been living under a rock, last week Haiti got hit by a major earthquake.  The devastation was great — over 100,000 lives lost, and many still lost in the ruble.  This morning, another earthquake hit the small nation.

Haiti means something more to me than most people I know.  My Catholic parish, where I grew up and still attend, supports a sister parish in Haiti.  We actually recently raised over $212,000 to build a medical/health clinic for the people there.  I know that I am going to do all I can to support and get Haiti all the funds that they need to be restored.

If you can help, please go here: http://bit.ly/6Iq8LJ  and donate to the American Red Cross.  I’m sure you are being bombarded with pledges for donation — BUT just do it.  You’ll feel better about yourself.  I promise.
