We're asking for everyone's support in raising funds for Mercy Corps' response to the Haiti Earthquake. I'm feeling especially connected to this crisis right now because of the time I served in Haiti in 1994 with the U.S. Army. In Haiti I found a warm and generous people who were suffering from rampant corruption, environmental degradation, and a terrible isolation from the rest of the world. I will be showing some of the artifacts that I brought back from my tour in Haiti at the coffee shop (2001 SE 11th) to focus attention on this crisis. We will be donating a portion of sales to the effort.
Thank you!

From Mercy Corps:
A 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck near Haiti's capital of Port-au-Prince Tuesday afternoon, collapsing buildings, including at least one hospital. With communications from the area disrupted, the situation is unclear -- but with continued aftershocks and eyewitness accounts of "total disaster" and chaos, there are fears of catastrophic damage and widespread casualties.
Mercy Corps is deploying an emergency response team to help survivors. Follow the latest updates at mercycorps.org/haiti.
Thank you!
