Comments on: Doctors Without Borders in Haiti http://globalpatriot.com/2010/01/13/doctors-without-borders-in-haiti/ Patriotism Without Borders Thu, 29 Jul 2010 14:35:12 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Global Patriot http://globalpatriot.com/2010/01/13/doctors-without-borders-in-haiti/comment-page-1/#comment-1298 Global Patriot Sat, 16 Jan 2010 15:20:17 +0000 http://globalpatriot.com/?p=519#comment-1298 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.

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.

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!
