Haitians urgently need more tents




This is from the The Augusta Chronicle Jan 25, 2010.
Haiti's prime minister, Jean-Max Bellerive, said his country needs at least 200,000 tents to provide shelter to those left homeless by the earthquake.
President Rene Preval's government said the need for tents was dire because the first rainy season begins in about 10 days. See article here.

Wyclef Jean has asked the Obama administration to rush more than 100,000 tents to Haiti so Yele can start building makeshift cities outside the capital to house the sick and the dying.
"Port-au-Prince is a morgue," Jean said, as images of the quake-ruined city flashed on a screen at a press conference yesterday. This quote is from nydailynews.com

While we must and should live and appreciate our lives, let us show love to others.
Why not donate our tents and equipment to Haiti ! You know you want a new tent, so buy a new tent and stimulate yourself and the economy.
