Relief groups, charities reorganize in Haiti

| | Comments (0)

For the last week, my inbox has been overrun with e-mails from faith-based charities and relief groups who are sending aid and helpers to earthquake-ravaged Haiti. Many congregations and missionary groups await word that their local representatives had survived. Sadly, some did not.

Worshippers across the country on Sunday took up special collections for Haiti relief. If you're looking for ways to help, here's a few ideas:

-- The United Methodists are collecting health kits;
-- Donate food or hygiene items to Missouri Synod Lutheran groups;
-- Or attend a benefit concert at 4 p.m. Sunday at Susquehanna Township Middle School, 801 Wood St., Harrisburg.

Also, the YDR would like to see your photos from Haiti, whether you were with a church group, for missionary work or relief work, etc. Upload them here.
