Haiti NEEDS your support!
Gabrielle Bourne Productions is coordinating the Enterprise-wide Haitian Relief efforts here in Florida. We will continue to collect "verified" resources here, to make the "hunt" for information a lot simpler and easier. Come back often for any updates. Use the form below for any additional resources and events related to the Haitian Relief efforts, and we will post them through our Social Media sites. Please note events should be open to the public and FREE.
The following is a list of resources, including a list of "recommended" places accepting "In Kind Donations." Thank you Red Cross for your assistance. If you want to donate money, please contact the RED CROSS DIRECTLY to ensure your funds are getting to Haitian Relief. There are a lot of SCAMS out there so please be aware.
We spoke to the Red Cross and they CONFIRMED that 100% of what ever you monetary donate to them will go towards Haitian Relief.
Here is how you can donate MONEY:
To the Red Cross...
BY TEXT: "HAITI" TO 90999 to donate $10 to the Red Cross, charged to your cell phone bill.BY MAIL: In WPB, 825 Fern Street, West Palm Beach, FL 33401. Please write on memo line if donation is for Haiti Relief & Development or International Disaster Relief Fund.BY PHONE: In WPB, 561.833.7711 to donate by credit card
BY INTERNET: Click here.Please note the Red Cross is ONLY taking monetary donations from the public..."Financial
donations to the Red Cross are the best way to assist victims of
disaster. Monetary contributions enable the Red Cross to purchase the
most urgently needed items as close to the disaster site as possible.
Purchasing near the disaster site ensures supplies get to victims as
quickly as possible, without delays and hefty transportation costs.
Because communities hit by disasters generally experience significant
economic loss, buying goods locally also helps to stimulate the
weakened economy by pumping money back into area businesses."
