Dear Carlsbad Charitable Foundation Members:

The disaster in Haiti is monumental.  Thousands have died and thousands more are lost.  The remaining population requires the most basic of life’s needs:  water, shelter and food.  I know many Carlsbad Charitable Foundation members and other citizens of Carlsbad want to help.

If you would like to offer financial assistance, here are two organizations that are already speeding to Haiti:

1. The Red Cross.
   Call:  1.800.733.2767
   Online donations:  www.redcross.org/donate.
   Text:  “Haiti” to 90999 which will allow a charge of $10 to the Red Cross.
   
   
2. The Salvation Army
   Online donations:  www.SalvationArmy.org
   Haiti Earthquake Relief

Thank you for your consideration.
