I was just coming here to post this. Glad to see you got here first. It is a terrible situation there - and even more terrible as they don't have the infrastructure to deal with such a catastrophe.

Misery upon misery--it's just unfathomable. I hope we can help in a meaningful way.

People can text HAITI to 90999 to donate $10 to the American Red Cross recovery effort. Check their website, to confirm it's not a scam.
