Hope For Haiti

You would have to be blind if you didn't see the devastation that has occurred in Haiti over the last few days.

With such a earthquake hitting such an impoverished area, it is a sad sight and weighs heavy on my heart to see the hurt people (especially the children) and those who were not lucky enough to make it with their life.

I know us as Americans have been hit with hard times over the past year but nothing as much as this country has. Over the past couple days when I thought of the shitty situation I've been in, I have stopped myself and made myself think of the hundreds of thousands of people that are sleeping in streets with no clean water and no where to go...I'm lucky enough to still have my loved ones and have shelter over my head wherever it may be and clean food and water in my belly.

It's heartbreaking to think that even many of these people that have survived might not for much longer with inadequate medical care and lack of basic life resources such as food, clean water, and medical supplies and personnel, and that's why I urge you that whatever you can donate whether it be supplies or $5 to donate to this cause. Living in Florida for the past 5 years I have made friends with many people in the Haitian-American community, who still have family in Haiti and it is horrible moment when you realize that some of your close friends do not know where or how their loved ones are doing and have no way to contact them.

So please if you have kindness in your heart and even if you don't have the resources to donate keep all these people affected by this catastrophe in your thoughts and prayers.

Here are some legit places if you do decide to donate as well as Wyclef Jean's Yele Haiti.
