The Faas Foundation – Haiti Appeal
As you may be aware, I have been associated with MSF (Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders) for a number of years.
This is an urgent request for help.
Given the media exposure it is not necessary for me to reiterate what is going on in Haiti.
What I can do however, is relay that I have seen firsthand, the work they do, the efficacy of this work and, most importantly, the HUGE impact they make. I experienced this when I visited a number of their projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo in August of 2008.
MSF has been running vital healthcare projects in Haiti for the past 19 years – most recently operating three emergency hospitals in Port-au-Prince – and are mounting a major relief effort to help the most vulnerable. While they have the people resources they require support.
I ask you to do what you can by way of a donation. I also ask you to send this appeal to people you feel could help.
As The Faas Foundation will match the first 100k raised, please make reference to The Faas Foundation – Haiti Appeal when making your donation.
Because of the urgency, I respectfully request that you consider making a gift and sharing this message before the end of the week.
