Good phone support from Rainforest site too.<br />Yes, we need to keep reminding our privileged selves that Haiti will need attention for many years.naomi dagen bloomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16636592739857173279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-77855276953699179152010-02-24T01:07:54.985-08:002010-02-24T01:07:54.985-08:00Riyadh~ So good to have a visit from you.

I'm listening to it as I blog. I must say, it's really something that you would think of me in reference to Paul Robeson. I love him, and this play sounds wonderful so far!<br /><br />Phivos~ Well, you are too!<br /><br />Melinda~ I needed the reminder myself. I also like Hattie's idea below.<br /><br />Hattie~ That's great that you have connected to Oxfam on a monthly schedule. From what you say I like their approach too. Another of my friends has made that group his charity funnel for Haiti. Seems I should take a closer look at Oxfam.Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-32390082528780239702010-02-23T12:38:16.754-08:002010-02-23T12:38:16.754-08:00I am sending money monthly to Oxfam to contribute ...I am sending money monthly to Oxfam to contribute to Haitian relief. That way if I start forgetting the situation the money goes to them anyway.<br />I like Oxfam's approach, which is on the ground and uses and pays local people for clean up and relief efforts.Hattiehttp://hattie.typepad.com/hatties_web/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-68089763777350529242010-02-23T11:06:32.779-08:002010-02-23T11:06:32.779-08:00This is a great reminder, Lydia.
