Haiti Disaster Relief Fund


Tygrlilies
is very grateful
for the outpouring of support in our own
fundraising effort.
We would like to pay it forward.

"Peekaboo Blankets"
(I think they need some new ones, don't you?)
On my Facebook page
I've told my friends that I'd like to

start helping

a particular
AIDS hospital
in Zimbabwe, Africa called
It was the place a dear friend of mine, the late Dave Harrison, used to call home.
Lori Batten is a nurse at the hospital and a fun blogger friend.
I look forward to getting to know her better as I begin to send donations her way.


Well, before we could even get started...

WHAM!

A certain big news story took center stage...

Living here in Southern California, the word 'Earthquake' kinda makes your stomach hurt.

But I can't go to Haiti- and even if I could, I'd probably be more hinderance than help...

But I do have a blog. And I have followers!

"YEAY, YOU! "

So if each of my followers took that button and placed it on their blog, then somebody somewhere down the line is bound to donate some money, right? Well, how about we go one better?


Order a Tygrlilies Doll for $50 and help support

Haiti Disaster Relief

and

Chidamoyo Hospital.


50% of all proceeds from Doll sales during the month of January will go to
Haiti Disaster relief.

25% will be going to

Chidamoyo Christian Hospital Blanket Drive.


(Of course, you could also contact these organizations directly

and 100% of your donation would go to them- I won't mind ;o)

*OR*
you can donate $10 to the American Red Cross by texting “Haiti” to 90999.

As of today, this tool has raised $3 million for the Haiti earthquake relief efforts.

Give your loved ones an extra kiss tonite.

  2. Angelica,
    Thank you for the information and for your efforts! I will put the widget on my blog today. Dawn over at the Good Life also suggested a great and reputable organization to donate to for Haiti relief. I think because of people like you, the Internet will be an incredibly successful tool in raising money for this effort!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog yesterday ... and yes, I did get a big ol' bite in the behind this week! ;0) But if it takes that to focus on my blessings, it's a good thing! ;0)

  4. It's great to see others using their network of online followers to spread the word and get help to Haiti in this time of need. Thanks for having a blog to make an impact!

    I too put the call out and requested followers, fans and network connections to make a difference by donating to the Red Cross International Fund.

    When we all do our small part we can change the big picture!
