I wanted to dedicate my blog post today to Mission For Haiti and the Haitian people who are struggling to even survive as we speak.

Mission For Haiti is a Worthwhile client, and we are privileged to work with such wonderful people.

There are many things to say concerning MFH, the earthquake, and the current crisis in Haiti. Whether through TV, print media, or the internet, I’m sure you’re staying fairly current with what’s going on.

I want to remind us all that, though the earthquake happened almost a week ago, the conditions day-by-day for many people are getting worse, not better, with water, food, and fuel diminishing and more bodies being discovered.

While many U.S. and worldwide organizations have tried to mobilize units to aid Haiti during this time, Mission For Haiti is, in essence, on the ground in Haiti already. In fact, they have been for a long while now, well before the earthquake hit. They support Hosanna Baptist Church in Jacmel, Haiti, a city about a half-an-hour from Port Au Prince.
