Haiti Relief

I saw this on The Bride's Cafe and thought I would share. I'm sure you've all been hearing/reading about the earthquake in Haiti, and maybe some of you have even donated to the Red Cross or Doctors Without Borders or the Yele Haiti Foundation. The White Aisle is helping raise money by donating 50% of the proceeds of their bridal jewelry line between now and January 17th to Doctors Without Borders. They have some really nice pieces so check them out!

Steve's family is all from Haiti but his immediate family lives in the United States and Canada now. But he has other family members still living in Haiti. Luckily, they were all able to be reached and are all okay. His parents do know people who have died because of this tragedy, and of course there are other families who have not been as lucky as Steve's. If you are interested in helping out, here's an article which lists some things you can do.

On that note, I hope everyone has a nice weekend!

  2. I’m so glad his family is OK. One of my close friends and groomsmen has a lot of family in Haiti, and found out that a couple of his relatives were pulled from rubble a couple days ago and are fortunately doing all right. But there are so many he can’t reach.

  5. Wow what a great post!!! I think Wyclef is doing something as well, a text message donation type thing. I'm very happy that his family is okay and saddened that the tragedy touched friends of his family.
