It makes me proud that our country (USA)at a time when we are having our own money problems that we can all come together to help Haiti. I truly believe that with everyone coming together that this is making a better planet. God Bless everyone.
Hope for Haiti fundraiser … FABULOUS. BUT WHO ARE THE ARTISTS???? Please post names as they perform. I don’t recognize most of them. By the way I already donated.
Americans have much to be thankful for – even in tough times. Let’s open our hearts – and our wallets – to our nearby neighbors in Haiti who need our help.
To the People of Haiti,
What you all have experienced is very earth shattering and devastateting. But when you feel that you have been forgotten just turn your eyes up to the sky and remember that God Almighty himself is remembering all of you, in cluding myself not by money but by prayer remember I love all of my Haitian brothers and sisters in chirst and to the little ones I love you too and so does God. Stay Strong
Your brother in Chirst,
Bill from the USA
