Volunteers deliver donation for Haiti earthquake survivors at a drop-off point in Hialeah Gardens, FloridaSandy Carlsten is the assistant principal at the school. Miz Carlsten set up a big glass container in the front office of the school. She sent letters asking the children to donate what they could.
Miz Carlsten says the children loved to watch the big glass jar fill up quickly. She found an envelope in the jar with the message: "I hope this money will help you and your family in these rough times."
Sandy Carlsten says the children raised more than one thousand four hundred fifty dollars. They are giving it to Catholic Relief Services to help the people of Haiti. She says sharing and caring for others is a big part of Catholic school education.
Even victims who were not seriously hurt in the earthquake January twelfth are in need of the most basic supplies. College students in Sierra Vista, Arizona are trying to help meet those needs. The Cochise College Social Concerns Club has organized a campaign to collect simple medical care equipment and personal cleanliness supplies.
In Virginia, employees of the Alexandria Sheriff's Office donated seven thousand dollars to help school children in Haiti. Harry Covert is the spokesman for the sheriff's office. He is also a leader of a humanitarian aid organization that has been supporting a school in Haiti for years. The school was destroyed in the earthquake but all one hundred fifty students survived.
