As part of the Advent Conspiracy this last December, I was introduced to the water crisis in Haiti. Did you know that mothers in Haiti had to walk miles for water that is polluted and unsafe to drink for their children. A friend told me recently about how she saw a mother on the news who was giving her children water that was obviously dirty. She expressed to the camera man that her children were begging for a drink and she had nothing else to give them. This last week, much of the world has become more cognizant of Haiti's plight due to a devastating earthquake. My heart aches for the people of Haiti. I ache to help in my own ways. For this reason, I am so grateful to be part of an organization with a heart. One that is caring enough to express their concern for others and help them when they need it. After all, isn't that what making cards and scrapbooks is all about? Expressing our love for others.
Stampin up! will be donating $2 from every I {Heart} Hearts stamp set purchased between now and Feb 28th to the American Red Cross’ Haiti Relief and Development Fund. The Red Cross is already well-established in Haiti, and this money will be used to provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need.
