Tried to send a donation to the Red Cross,but couldn't get through on the puter,so I found another way..
Text messaging.. Text haiti to 90999.You'll get a reply asking if you want to donate.Text yes,and send.You'll get another message saying your donation of $10.00 has been accepted,and will be put on your cell phone bill..

According to the news,if you send a contribution DO NOT send it directly to Haiti,due to the corrupt govt,who will probably pocket the money.As I said earlier,text Haiti, @ 9-0-9-9-9-.Over 4 million dollars has been raised so far this way..It goes to the Red Cross for aid..

There are alot of Haitians that live in Poinciana, I also work with some of them. I feel so bad for them. most have lost loved ones, Lost their homes that they have worked so hard to build...But every single one of them..are soooo soooo great full for the out pouring of support...and they also do say not to send money to Haiti Directly, because of the Corrupt Govt...
In this day an age People should not have to live in the conditions that there were living in In Port au Prince and other areas of Haiti ...things were bad before the qauke ..now they are ever worse..shame shame on their President!
some of the Haitians are even asking for the American Govt to take over!

I have Haitian friends myself,and my heart goes out to them.I've always found them to be good,friendly people..Too bad the president got away.Woulda been a good thing had he been one of the victims,so a better govt might have emerged.
I wish Pat Robertson would shrivel up and blow away,also.What a freakin' jerk.He said the 2004 hurricanes were Gods punishment to Florida for gay days,that Katrina was Gods punishment to New Orleans due to their debauchery,and lifestyle,now he's saying the Haitiain earthquake was Gods punishment because they accepted the devil..What a sick individual..

As a Christian, i was highly offended by what Robertson said, I can assure you that none of my Christian friends think like that...
we are suppose to pray for people when things like this happens...not Justify..why it happened....
I think he is a old geezer that needs to be placed in a nursing home and give up the pulpit!

What a great country we live in that we can love and be concerned for our fellow human beings. I feel sooooooo good about all the donations, prayers and love we are sending to Hati as a country.

God Bless the USA and it's people!

Did everyone hear that the Chilean earthquake changed the rotation of the earth on it's axis by 3 inches,resultiing in the day being shortened by 1 millisecond?
Weird,3 major earthquakes in one month.Haiti,Japan,and Chile.

Actually the geological center in Colorada says there are hundreds each and every day, they just don't always happen in such heavily populated areas as much as lately.
