>>>> Donate Now!! <<<<

How can people donate?

· People who want to help those affected by the Haitian earthquake can make a donation to the American Red Cross International Response Fund at redcross.org or by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS. Donors can designate their gifts to Haiti relief.

· Checks or cash can be sent or brought to the Bloomsburg Chapter at 119 East 7th St., Bloomsburg, PA 17815. Make checks payable to American Red Cross and designate them for Haiti

· The Red Cross is also receiving money through a third-party mobile fundraising effort in which mobile donors can text "Haiti" to 90999 to send a $10 donation to the Red Cross. The funds will go to support the Red Cross relief efforts in Haiti.

How far will my donation go?

· Families who have lost everything in an international disaster need immediate help just to make it through the first terrifying hours and days. A cooking set, toilet paper and a toothbrush, safe water and a blanket to keep warm – these simple items are essential as families struggle to survive. For $100, you can give one family a basic kit that will provide a month's supplies.

Why should someone donate to the Red Cross?

· The Red Cross is the largest nonprofit organization with permanent presence in Haiti and plays an important coordination role among other humanitarian groups within the country.

· Our more than 97 million volunteers worldwide – and hundreds of local responders from Haiti – give the Red Cross the expertise, scale and scope to manage catastrophic disasters from the moment they strike.
