American Generosity



I believe that Americans are among the most generous, caring people in the world.

I doubt than there is anyone who is unaware of the 7.3 magnitude earthquake that shook Haiti on Tuesday. The news coming out of Haiti is of utter devastation.

Haiti is among one of the poorest nations on earth. If you'd like to help clothe, house, feed and send medicine to Haiti, you can donate $10.00 to the Red Cross by simply sending a text message from your cell phone.

The $10.00 charge will show up on your cell phone bill. The donation goes directly to the Red Cross. The Red Cross is usually the first "boots on the ground" organization in times when emergency response is called for.

How many text messages do you send in one day? This could be the most important one of all.

A Cook's Notes: Please feel free to visit The Red Cross to verify that this donation is valid.
