So you've done your part and texted "HAITI" to 90999, right? ;)
Well, now this fight has gone beyond money. There are three things you can do NOW to help out those in need in Haiti:
1) Your Time - See below for some great ideas to get started.
2) Your Friends - Click here to tell your friends about HOPE+ and ask them to get involved.
3) Your Ideas - HOPE+ is brand new and we want your ideas on how we can bring together the best ideas to make the biggest impact in a crisis. This is what HOPE+ was built for! Leave a comment below to let us know what you think. Once we hear from you, we will develop a targeted project to have an immediate impact for those that need our help.
Here are a few ways for you to get involved NOW:
Drop the Debt Petition
This project, sponsored by ONE, is to lobby for immediate cancellation of Haiti's $1 billion debt and ensure that any emergency earthquake assistance is provided in the form of grants, not debt-incurring loans.
"Micro-projects"
Led by The Extraordinaries, you can to help sort and tag disaster photos, match the missing to sorted images and search the image data base for missing persons.
All for Good
Check out All For Good, search for the key word "Haiti" along with your zip code and find volunteer opportunities in your community.
