There are no new links from Ms. Yates, though I second giving directly to individuals and families (or those who can send that money to their families). General communications seem to still be down in the South (WhatsApp might be working for some), but they're working on it.
Fanm Djanm on IG has posted this:
And here are the Instagram links:
Ayiti Community Trust
Hope for Haiti
Grown In Haiti
Bati School
Two links suggested in the replies of the previous tweet :
This organization Little Footprints Big Steps was already accepting donations from the previous earthquake to help families in Les Cayes (where the recent earthquake hit nearby)
Haiti Air Ambulance is another that works sitting emergencies to help airlift victims to emergency medical care providers
There's a lot going on, but ever bit can count!
I'm sorry if you're tired of thinking about ofmd and that whole mess but goddamn... it's incredibly painful to see so many people trying to set up fundraisers to get their families out of gaza and the sudan and desperately trying to get their loved ones to safety, I've seen so many and everyday I check to see how much progress they've made, most of them still haven't hit their goal. It hurts to see people rally around a tv show and raise all this money for a billboard, and it's very frustrating to see how people have reacted to this criticism. Like bro tv shows get canceled sometimes there's more important stuff going on
Someone else said it better but to see a fundraiser for tv show renewal advertisements raise $20,000 in less than a day while it takes days/weeks/months/years/never for fundraisers for actual causes that help real people in need reach a goal of less is absolutely dystopian and shameful
vetted fundraisers from today. please continue to give support to families like these in whatever capacities you can, they are suffering such unfathomable deprivation and grief.
