Haitian Families Relief Fund

You Have Chosen To Donate NOW

As many of you may already know, I, DJ Musical Mix, am an Haitian-American and have been greatly affected by the tragedy caused by the Tuesday, January 12th earthquake. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake – and several very strong aftershocks – struck only 10 miles from Port-au-Prince, but the damage is catastrophic. The damage to the structures, the families, and the community is beyond belief, with injuries in the thousands, and the death toll in the hundred thousands.
 
Haiti needs and appreciates your help. I have gotten in touch with Wyclef Jean and he has encouraged me to let YOU know ways you can donate: Either you can use your cell phone to text “Yele” to 501501, which will automatically donate $5 to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund (it will be charged to your cell phone bill), or you can click on DONATE buttons. That would allow you to donate any amount to the Haitian Families Relief Fund organized by DJ Musical Mix.

 
Wyclef also stated the following:

“I will continue to commit my focus to what is most important right now: Haiti. Right now, Yele is working with its valuable NGO partners, the U.S. Government, the United Nations and so many others to save lives, honor those who have perished and get aid to the millions of Haitians suffering through the worst human catastrophe of our times ... President Obama has already said that the U.S. stands ‘ready to assist’ the Haitian people. The U.S. Military is the only group trained and prepared to offer that assistance immediately. They must do so as soon as possible. The international community must also rise to the occasion and help the Haitian people in every way possible.”
 

The survivors and their families are going to need us all. They will need rebuilding tactics and resources that will bring the survivors back to a life of living.

We cannot stress enough what a human disaster this is, and idle hands will only make this tragedy worse. Haiti faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced. The over 2 million people in Port-au-Prince face catastrophe without enough money and resources. We must act now.
