You can also donate to the American Red Cross by texting: 90999HAITI

The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) has a long history (and is 4-star rated by Charity Navigator) of direct relief in Haiti. They are on the ground NOW and will be there after the immediate needs, working on infrastructure and long-term improvements. 100% of donations to UMCOR fund direct relief, as the larger UMC covers administrative costs. Please add UMCOR to your list of Haiti relief organizations seeking donations.
