Planet Voodoo's Haiti Response Fundraiser
Project summary
Just hours after a catastrophic earthquake struck Haiti — killing thousands and displacing up to two million people — Mercy Corps began deploying an experienced, field-tested emergency response team. Upon arriving in Port-au-Prince, we went immediately to work, talking with displaced survivors about what they needed most. We delivered 15 tons of food to the city's biggest hospital. We got clean water flowing again in medical clinics and shattered neighborhoods. We ensured a reliable income for survivors by creating a cash-for-work program, which also began revitalizing failing local economies. Today, our team is working with survivors, local authorities and partner organizations on long-term plans — including job creation — that will help Haiti rebuild better and stronger.
Message from Planet Voodoo:
Help us raise money for Mercy Corps' response to the Haiti Earthquake.
A 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck near Haiti's capital of Port-au-Prince Tuesday afternoon, collapsing buildings, including at least one hospital. Tens of thousands are feared dead in the largest quake to strike the impoverished Caribbean nation in 200 years. Power is out, telecommunications are spotty and food and water are reportedly growing scarce.
The first members of a Mercy Corps emergency response team are en route to help survivors. Follow the latest updates at mercycorps.org/haiti. Find a special prayer to Haiti at Planet Voodoo.
Thank you!

I am currently out of work, but I know if I can help even a little bit... not only might it please Pappa Legba and Mamma Erzulie, but they might be kind enough to shine good karma on me. :D Thank you Voodoo Mamma for teaching me more about them when I found your website during my research. :D

It doesn’t surprise that Miss. Denise from Planet Voodoo would head up such a worthy cause as this. She is one of the nicest people you could ask to meet. Pleases take the time to make a donation. The people of Haiti need your help.
