Safe Haiti Donations

I don't think there is anyone who is not touched/bothered by the needs of the people in Haiti right now.

There have been a lot of requests made by aid workers and disaster specialists in country concerning what is donated and the kind of help they need. And this is what they're saying -

“When people give $1, it translates into $7 in the field. If they spend $5 for bottled water, that’s nice and it makes them feel good, but probably
it costs us more than $5 to send it. If they give us $5, we can get $35 worth of water.”

That’s a sentiment echoed by virtually every aid agency.
“I would really say at this point, honestly, right now, money is the best thing to give,” Rothe-Smith said.

If you are a looking for a way to give- LDS Philanthropies is a reputable charity that is also a 100% volunteer organization.
That means 100% of your donation goes right to people in need.
