My heart aches for those in Haiti today. My thoughts and prayers are for the mothers who lost loved ones. For the children who lost a friend. For those who are still searching for family members. I cant even imagine the pain that they are all enduring.
Lets not ignore this moment. Today I’m taking part in a “Blogger Day of Action” with many other bloggers to offer our readers an opportunity to help in the relief efforts in Haiti. There are many ways to donate funds. Here are a few suggestions that I have. You can text “HAITI” to 90999 to donate $10 to Red Cross relief efforts in Haiti. Also go here to donate money for food and go here to see what you can do with TOMS shoes.
Jeanine from Aphro Chic will be auctioning items throughout the day so make sure to head over there sometime today.
{God is our refuge and strength. An ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way}... Psalm 46:1-2

before i sat down to read my daily blogs, i thought to myself, how superficial and selfish can i be? looking at pretty items while people are going through this tragedy! i am cuban and live in south florida, so the cause is very close to me. i wondered if any of my daily reads would even mention the tragedy. i was very happy to see that you did and that you are doing something to help!
btw, i love your blog and choice of images. very visually inspiring. (ifound your blog via the kenziepoo blog).
I’m glad you posted this today. My office is currently collecting money to send over to Haiti + my heart goes out to everyone affected by the tragedy.
