#Help out Haiti#

I lived in Mexico City when the earthquake of 1985 happened. It was a terrible experience. We all lost family and friends.

This time Haiti is suffering the worst tragedy on its history.

I believe we can do something to help them out.

You can send a $10 donation to the Red Cross by texting “Haiti” to 90999. You will be billed an extra $10 on your phone bill.

By giving up a one entertainment activity, you can save a life in Haiti.

$10 = one bottle of wine
$10 = 2 six packs of beer
$10 = a cover charge to your favorite music venue
$10 = 2 DVD rentals
$10 = 1 Pizza from Pizza Hut
$10 = one movie ticket
$10 = one snack and one beverage at the movies
$10 = 3 gallons of gas
$10 = one (modest) home cooked meal for two


You know you can afford it!


This is an effort backed by the U.S. State Department. Funds will go to support American Red Cross relief efforts in Haiti.


This is not a hoax - here's the press release from the redcross website:
