Haitian Relief Update
My family has decided that, in honor of Dr. King's holiday, we're going to answer the call to volunteerism by beginning to pack up the shoebox care packages on Monday. We'll buy supplies over the weekend and then start compiling them. There's a chance that a delegation from our church will be going to Haiti later this month, and there are some other contacts that we've developed during the cause, so they will get there. We know that "preparation is the key to life," so we want to have care packages ready to ship out whenever the opportunity comes. Join us!

By the way, we've already made a monetary donation towards the cause, which is the quickest form of aid, so remember that is always the first and best option. Here's the website again with various organizations/venues for donations:
