About Me

My Photo
I am an old blogger who has found their way back to the internet. I love being a mom, an African American, spending time with my husband and shopping online. I waste time on Facebook and I do not spend enough time on Twitter. Reading is my favorite past time but bad reality shows are my guilty pleasure. Here, I blog about parenting, businesses and their successes, and innovation.

Help Haiti

This is a simple request.

When Katrina happened I was angry. I wanted so badly to go to Louisiana and just help. I wanted the schools in Arkansas to shut down and house all the evacuees. I am having those same feelings now. So, I found something I can do.

Let's do our part:

The Clinton Foundation – Text “Haiti” to 20222 to donate $10 or go to clintonfoundation.org.

The American Red Cross – Text “Haiti” to 90999 to donate $10, visit redcross.org or call (800) RED-CROSS.

Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti Foundation – Text “Yele” to 501501 to donate $5 or visit yele.org.

The Clinton Foundation – Text “Haiti” to 20222 to donate $10 or go to clintonfoundation.org.

The horror of the pictures from Haiti is mindnumbing.

It is heartwarming to see people gathering themselves together to lend a hand and assistance.

Good for you for spreading the word. I donated to ARC as soon as I heard about the earthquake.
Came over from SITS.

I've made donations to a few organizations, but we want to do more. My wife and I even discussed adopting a child from Haiti. We need to do more research.

Wonderful! I have donated and I have children that have been looking for ways that they can help. One wants to do a clothing drive. Lord, I am so proud that we are stepping up to help these people!
