Let’s Help Haiti

I’m sure most of you have heard about the earthquake in Haiti. From what I’ve read, it’s one of the worst natural disasters ever. I sent a donation to Doctors Without Borders, but the small amount I can afford will only do so much. That’s where you all come in!

Here’s the deal- I want all of you to donate too. $5, $10, any amount you can afford. If enough people donate even one dollar, it will help. After you make your donation, email me at info AT fiberphile DOT com with “Haiti” in the subject line (very important!) and make sure to tell me how much you donated. I don’t need any proof- I trust you.

On Wednesday, January 20th (that’s one week from today) I will enlist my sons to help me draw three names from those who entered. They will each win a Fiberphile Gift Certificate worth DOUBLE the amount he or she donated, up to $100 value.

Also, if you donate, be sure to go over to Knitters Without Borders and let Stephanie know that you donated. That’s a pretty spectacular tally she’s got there, but it can always use a boost!

Georgia - what a great idea! I donated. It’s amazing how many small drops can fill such a large bucket!

This is my first time to your blog, and I’m impressed by your generosity! I donated $100 yesterday to the Red Cross.

When these things happen most of us feel sad and helpless . Thank you or being a person to organize us . Small drops do add up.
