My first approach has been to encourage donations via the Doctors Without Borders website. Now that @DowntownRob is promoting a tWineUp on January 30th at Arterra, that may be an opportunity to raise additional funds. While I realize that’s still two weeks away, the sad reality is that DWB will be treating injuries in Haiti for months to come, so their need for financial support extends far beyond today.

Luckily Doctors Without Borders is used to quick reaction and supplies have been moved from their logistics operation in Bordeaux, France to Haiti, but many local hospitals were destroyed and the magnitude of injury has been beyond the capacity of staff on site.

Following the story has been heartbreaking, as logistics are keeping vital aid from reaching the victims. With a small, single runway airport, damaged roads and a port in shambles it has taken much longer than expected to get basic necessities on land.

Mark, Are you thinking of holding a local event to help raise funds for Doctors w/o Borders supporting the folks in Haiti? Perhaps the local blogger community might be willing to work with you on a tweetup/twineup to raise a little money? It's such a large disaster, it's hard to know how to be the most helpful and effective. Let me know if you do and I'll be sure to help spread the word. Thanks for everything you do!

This is just a horrible situation. My prayers go out to all those in Haiti and hopefully these doctors can help as much possible. .-= pays to live green´s last blog ..Greenpeace’s Green Electronics Guide =-.
