Forget HAIR for now! HELP HAITI

[gissellr78]

Ladies get together with your family members to help Haiti.
Yele.org is Wyclef's site or choose any organization you choose.

Let's get together to help Haiti!

I concur, its really sad when no one gives these threads love.

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 here to DONATE (http://www.yele.org/)


To donate $10 to the Red Cross, text "Haiti" to 90999. Please help provide emergency relief. Thank you.

we have a similar thread in OT and I've been getting the message on fb all day. I don't think it's that people don't want to give threads such as these love, it's that they've been getting them all day from other sources so when it's your 4th or 5th or 43rd time hearing the same thing, you just let it pass you by.

I donated 10 to the red cross and 5 to Clef... maybe I'll do another 5 to Clef.

But yeah, I do believe that for less than the cost of some of folks favorite hair products, we can put our money together and collectively do something that will benefit this nation of people that have already been through so much.

i did donate.
& i have friends affected by this.
it's truly heartbreaking.

 

[SmilingElephant]

I donated....out of the love of my Haitian friends

 

[JJamiah]

I donated this morning, actually went directly to Amazon upon logging on and was shocked it wasn't on there, I donated directly through the Red Cross. I am also glad they made this a stickey. I couldn't even look myself in the mirror to know I'd spend money on hair supplies but not help a country in need.

I am guilty of posting this all over my Facebook! I can live with that guilt though!

Yes you do! We have lots of Haitian members on the board!

 

[yardyspice]

I donated through the Red Cross last night and I would suggest that people be careful about which organizations they give their hard earned money to. We want the money to go to legitimate orgs not scam artists like what happened after Katrina.

 

[Mz.Shug]

I'll be donating!Thank you for this thread.

 

[bahamababe242]

thank you OP, my heart hurts for my neighbors

 

[taz007]

Just donated. Will do so again tomorrow.

God bless Haiti.

 

[nymane]

I donated & I will continue to keep them in my prayers

Just because we are thinking about hair doesn't mean we aren't concerned about Haiti. I was literally sobbing earlier over this tragedy. Sitting here rocking back and forth for hours will not help the Haitian people. In a time of stress, sadness and horror, people sometimes need to also think about something positive, something they DO have a measure of control over.

Thank you for making this a sticky...I am extremely sad. Thank you for donating ladies.

My confirm was immediate. You should receive a reply asking you to text YES.
