Haiti Earthquake Support
From the January 25, 2010 issue of TIME magazine
How You Can Help
Less than 24 hours after the earthquake in Haiti, the Red Cross announced it had already raised $800,000 from text messages alone. Much more is needed. But beware: when
tragedy strikes, scammers do too. The FBI is already warning the public to carefully review donation solicitations related to the earthquake that are sent via e-mail or social networks. Stick with organizations that are familiar, and give directly to them, not through third parties.
Here are some legitimate groups raising money for
victims.
