Here is a list of organizations involved with helping Haiti. I have signed up with Interaction.org and CIDI.org in my own attempt to get over to Haiti. Finally I really know (besides just a feeling) that I have very solid skills to be able to help in the rapidly changing situation in Haiti.

If you are looking to donate to an organization working in Haiti and other parts of the world check the link out.
What I am sick of is people who do not donate because they state that the money will not get to Haiti or be diverted. Most organization do not divert funds anymore - especially after the debacle the Red Cross faced after the World Trade Center was attacked on 9/11/2001. I heard someone say today they would rather 'give money to a bum on the street' then send money overseas. I wrote this idiot/jerk off right away as a know it all ignorant American.
Do something people, anything. I donated money to Partners in Health and the Red Cross. Now, I am trying to donate my skills and time. Lets hope I find a taker.
Thanks for reading,
David
