Quite a tragedy for tens of thousands --- some estimates are in the hundreds of thousands. It will probably take some before we know how many have died, but in the meantime, those who are alive are in desparate need. This link provides some important information in guiding donations so that they are directed appropriately.

"Sadly, hucksters with slick websites and TV shows are also at work so be careful -- Haiti has served for decades as an excuse for TV evangelists to pretend to aid its children while pocketing millions of dollars."

Let us all pray for the people of Haiti. Another earthquake happened there. Too many lives lost. I'll contribute in my own little way.

I contributed a wee sum through world concern. Hope it doesn't pay for a directors meal. All this corruption in the world is making me very cynical indeed.
