Follow up on Haiti

Thanks to those of you who emailed me directly, called, or posted about Haiti. I wanted to give a recap of organizations that folks mentioned:

  • Here's one that a friend in Asheville is involved with: Mission Manna. In her words, "Check out www.missionmanna.org for a grassroots organization providing health care to children."
  • Partners in Health, www.pih.org
  • Kiva, www.kiva.org -- for microlending
  • CRS, www.crs.org -- one of the largest relief and development organizations; and I used to work for them overseas, so I know they do good work

And I haven't read through it all, but here's a blog about Haiti: http://dyinginhaiti.blogspot.com.

At least this got the conversation started. We'll see where it goes.
