    This is a little off subject but I think it is sad that the only times we learn about other peoples, countries and cultures are usually when a lot of people just died. I am guilty too, just thought it was interesting.

    I'm trying to start a fundraiser at my school so I can send anything, money, food, i don't even know what else, to haiti to help in any small way possible with the food crisis
    What are some organizations that I can contact so I know what to do, who to send it to, and if it will actually get where I want it to go?
