Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Haiti and their families around the world. Please help out in any way you can and if you find a good organization or business not listed here that is directly helping with the relief efforts... please share the info with the rest of us! :)

Please use your common sense and take a few minutes to do some research so that your help can get to where it's needed. It's a sad but true fact of life that ne'er-do-wells will crawl out from under their rocks in times of need to take advantage of the generosity of good folks. I listed the direct links to some well-known and reputable charities; however, I have already seen some shady links online in Google ads, Facebook, and on other websites. Check the URLs (web addresses) first!!
Thank you Feltizens and God bless!
