Please help Haiti! - Text Messaging

Aside from donating to major charity groups you can also send text messages in order to help Haitian earthquake relief efforts:
  • U.S. State Department - Texting "HAITI" to "90999" and a $10 donation will be made to the Red Cross.
  • Yele Haiti - Texting "YELE" to "501501" and a $5 donation will be made.
Please note that your cell phone bill will be automatically billed if you make a text message donation and that it may not be possible to make a donation outside of the U.S. Still, we beg of you to help our Haitian brothers and sisters in need, and if you have any tips please let us know via e-mail at ourlatinamerica@yahoo.com
