I need a favor..Jerry Burney

John, Thanks for stepping up! Now we need all active members to consider giving the price of a fast food meal to help John and those who are hurting. If anyone can make good use of our precious dollars in Haiti it is the LugerForum owner, John Dunkle and his orginazation, Rennwish.

I have NOT posted this before, but....

As well - for those who have contributed, a quick update.. I got the first money INTO Les Cayes early this morning - and I'm walking a bit of a tightrope. You see - if I send too much, it won't be distributed, as available money in Cayes from the banks and the wire transfer agencies are in short supply (yes - I mean that..).. When they "run out of money" - they close. So - if we send too much - it won't be distributed. If we send to little, it won't do much at all given the prices of food, medicine and fuel (in fact - you can't buy fuel today)...

Anyway - today, we have our first first small victory for those in Les Cayes. Today, we were able to get some money there, and have started purchasing and distributing medicine and food and those much needed goods will be distributed to:
* - one of the local hospitals;
* - a village that is hosting many refugees from PAP which is now out of food; and
* - and a smaller orphanage outside Les Cayes that is in dire need.


We are fortunate, as many "non-profits" are still struggling to get any money "in country". We have done so - and we will continue to do so.

While it is one small step - we are indeed moving forward.

My thanks to all of you...

John.
