Help for Haiti

Folks,
Here's a chance to help others who are clearly in a devastating situation and need humanitarian aid. Haitians surely need our assistance and if you are inclined and able to give, no matter how small, here are a few ideas...

How to Help Send Food to Haiti
Posted by Erin Zimmer, January 13, 2010 at 6:50 PM

As we learn more about yesterday's 7.0 earthquake in Haiti, relief efforts are underway to help those left devastated by this tragedy. Epi-Log has come up with a list of organizations where you can make donations: United Nations' World Food Programme, Red Cross, Oxfam America, and Action Against Hunger.

Also from my friend Mary Shafer...

If u can text, u can help. Text HAITI to 90999 to donate $10 to Red Cross Int'l Releif fund, billed 2 ur cell phone account. NOT a scam. White House endorses. I just did it. Please share this with ur friends - Haiti's the poorest nation on Earth, and just survived two disastrous tropical storms recently. These people h...ave NOTHING. It's just $10 to you, but together with everyone else, you may make the difference between enough and not enough. Bless u for giving what you can. Bless u doubly if u can't. http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2010/01/13/help-haitiSee

More Summer Produce

Greetings from Produce Central. My house is just filled with great goodies all season. Although I'm not a huge fan of summer because I don't enjoy the heat and humidity that comes with it, I do like the food the weather brings.

If you religiously listen to National Public Radio like we do, you may have been hearing a series called Farm Fresh Foods. They are almost through with it, but I wanted to share it with you in case you've missed it during your morning frenzy!

Happy reading and eating!
