What Haiti Needs: Relief Efforts

Haiti doesnt need another catastrophe, whether by the hands of nature or by man. Haiti doesnt need anyones degradation or pity. What Haiti does need is prayer, compassion, and collaboration!

By now, we have all heard about the havoc that category 4 Hurricane Matthew has wreaked, causing infrastructural damage throughout regions of Haiti and claiming the lives of many.
