Hope for Haiti Now - Update

OK, so I just had to drop a quick update. I heard on the news that the money raised during the "Hope for Haiti Now" telethon (yes, they're calling it a telethon) last night has raised $57 Million ... and counting!!! That's so awesome! I'm totally impressed that people, even given the current economic crisis in America, gave so generously. Rock on people! The website will still be accepting donations for another 90 days. There's still time. So if you can give, please visit http://www.hopeforhaitinow.org/.

Hope for Haiti Now

So last night I watched the "Hope for Haiti Now" benefit (or was it a telethon?) and donated to the cause. I couldn't imagine loosing everything I had. In the case of many Haitians, what they had wasn't much to begin with. This is really time to do something, so I called in (no, I did not talk to anyone famous ... a few people have asked me that). I am dying to know how much money they raised! But, for my first official blog post, I thought encouraging people out there in cyberspace to contribute was a good idea - pay it forward. So if you want to get involved, go to http://www.hopeforhaitinow.org/ and give what you can. Think about it ... if everyone gave $5 and 1 million people watched last night (math genius that I am), that's $5 Million going DIRECTLY to Haiti (Hope for Haiti Now waived admin fees, so all the money is going straight to the people who need it).

So give. And send good thoughts.
