Many of us including myself always find myself confused when trying to support disaster relief. Unicef, Red Cross, United Nations fund etc and what exactly are they doing. We all see them on the news but somehow there is a disconnect between dollar and worker. How do I know which one to support? If you prefer a more grassroots approach then please carry on reading.

If you have not committed any dollars to a specific need, allow me to make a plea on behalf of In Touch Orphanage in St. Marc, Haiti. Carolyn Walker,  a long time friend and babysitter of mine long ago is in financial need. [You know it hits home when it's an ex babysitter] If you would like to see for yourself concerning what they are doing, please check out their link In Touch Ministries.

Most recently, our clothing business GesuCristo began working with In Touch in producing a garment exclusively sold for their benefit. We recently finished production in the last quarter of 2009 but were holding distribution till after Christmas.  The most recent disaster has fast forwarded production to  gather people like you looking for something/somewhere to pledge support.
