Buy a Bandage - support Haiti

Just made my donation at the top of the main page! I couldnt think of a better place to send money right now. We are all very fortunate here and hopefully we can spread some help over there! We spend money on flat badges at the drop of a hat and these poor people don't even have a cast for their broken bones.

Nice job guys. We are a fortunate group and no doubt one willing to help out folks that need all the help they can get right now. My family has made donations and our son was deployed (82nd Airborne) to Haiti yesterday. I know everyone will do their part as always.

I did it through Rennlist. Think of the money we spend on eating out, a tank of gas, etc.. That money can do a lot down there. And John (who started Rennwish) is sending the money directly to where it's needed, so none of it gets used in administrative costs or somebody's salary (like with some other non-profits)
