HAITI Needs Your HELP

retrogurl — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 06:01:42 +0000

The people of Haiti needs your help. With estimates that as many as three million people may be affected by the catastrophic earthquake which hit Haiti Tuesday, let’s all lend a helping hand. I’ve combined some ways of how you can help, please do what you can to help the victims whether it’s sending money, supplies, food or clothing. My prayers goes out to the people of Haiti.

For those interested in helping immediately, simply text “HAITI” to “90999″ and a donation of $10 will be given automatically to the American Red Cross to help with relief efforts. Your donation will be charged to your mobile phone bill, and one hundred percent of this donation goes directly to the Red Cross. There is no per-text fee for this service for customers who do not have a messaging plan, nor will the text be decremented from messaging plans.

Yo can also text “YELE” to 501501 to support Haitian-born musician and featured T-Mobile MyTouch™ 3G artist Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti fund. For more information, please visit http://www.yele.org.

Help children affected by the earthquake in Haiti, make a donation via UNICEF.

ICRC is helping reconnect separated families in Haiti through a special web site which enables people in Haiti and outside the country to search for and register the names of relatives missing since the earthquake. In the first twenty-four hours, more than 6,000 people have been registered.

MSNBC put together a list of charitable organizations active in the nation, click here to see how you can help.

Poor Cookie…

retrogurl — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 21:43:25 +0000

So I’ve been a bit out of it last week because one of my dogs, Cookie, was sick. I had no clue what was going on, he kinda lost his appetite and all he did was sleep and bite on his leg. Then after I bathed him the other day he seemed ok, went out to dinner and came home and noticed he was biting on his leg again. Took a closer look and saw it was bleeding, cut the hair a bit and saw it was super swollen and bruised up. Weird b/c it wasn’t there when my mom bathed him earlier. Took him to the vet and t turned out he had a bad infection on his leg, he got surgery and I picked him up on Friday. He’s doing a bit better but I had to take him into the vet yesterday to rinse the open wound, back there Monday again! Sigh, poor baby! Hope he’ll be well soon!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
