Please take a few moments to watch the following video. It really moved me and I wanted to share it with the people I'm connected with. Continue to pray and please do whatever you can to help.

What a terrible disaster. That video says a lot. While this is a natural disaster, I'm also hearing that gangs are causing trouble there too. While humanitarian aid is important, I think policing should also be a priority.
Nice Entry!

Here's the link to that story.

I want to go. I'm seriously trying to see how I can get involved.
Thanks for making me cry at work.
I have written a special song for Haitians
http://knowyourhaitirelief.ning.com/profiles/blogs/song-dedicated-to-haiti and hope 1 day they will be able to see it/hear it, not just the developed world. I hope proceeds from it will save future lives from such disasters on the island most vulnerable!
Thanks for sharing Brianna!
I was wondering if you'd finally mention Haiti! What took you so long? The stench of dead bodies in your world of San Diego comfy bed and life?
Same with Bianca...both hypocrites in life only out for your own good!
B breasy nice post. we all should help how we can.
@Ruboterra
from my life experiences, until you step into anothers shoes and walk in them for a mile, you don't get the right to critisize or judge. but i do understand your point, although communicated poorly in my opinion.
i would have said it something like...hey B breazy...You are aweseome, beautiful, talented, and just an overall inspiration for all man kind. how can so many of us so lucky in our lives in the great ol usa help? we must always very much appreciate how each of us live and while we say we want to help those in haiti, let us do it instead of just posting it on the internet.
Ruboterra...did I say the same thing but better phrased? Peace man and all of you..
@Kaydron..........
Are you aware you spelled breasy/breazy 2 different ways? Ut um!
I could have phrased it differently but who the heck cares! No one!
Just my point exactly. Brianna's blog, Bianca's blog, Obama, Bush, You.......no-one cares really!
My point was, to simplify it......."We all only care about ourselves!"
Did any of us hop on a plane to the Dominican Republic then drive into Haiti to help? NO! We all went about our daily lives, posting blogs, comments on Facebook, about how much we care! Maybe some donated $10 though text. Whatever!
I'm tired of hypocrisy and fake people. Calling it how it is.
They actually recommend people don't come to Haiti to help, seeing as how they don't have water, food, electricity, or shelter. So......
It hurts me to watch. I suggest ppl, to hold your support if you plan to give. Three months from now is when the real help from private sources will be required. Brit Brat, try to invest in Haiti to develop renewable energy like solar & wind tech.
Warmest Regards,
Njou
