We Want to Hear From YOU

The 100 Beds for Haiti Campaign was founded upon the notion of the grassroots movement, and daily we are tapping into our own networks, tapping into our friends' networks, their friends' networks, their friends' networks... well, you get the idea. We have taken on this approach because we are aware of the strengths we bring to the campaign: passion, drive, commitment, intelligence, and diverse personal and professional backgrounds but we are also conscious of our weaknesses, too: we know that we won't always know how to immediately approach different aspects of the campaign but what we do know is that we can always find the answer.

It has been two months since the devastating earthquake first struck Haiti; hundreds of thousands of Haitians lost their homes, their families, and their lives. As individuals, we are all aware of the tragedy that struck Haiti but are we all always conscious of what steps are being made to improve the immediate situation--infrastructure, social services, food aid, transportation, and health care-- and ensure that it isn't just a band-aid that is placed over Haiti but long term solutions are set in place for long term redevelopment?

Since we can't all be conscious all the time, we see this as an opportunity to dive into all our networks--including yours, dear reader--to bring greater awareness, suggestions, ideas, concerns, movements, and partnerships to this campaign. Your feedback is our building block to not only ensure that this campaign reaches our goal of securing 100 hospitals beds for Hôpital Sacré Coeur but also provides us with the social consciousness that any campaign needs to succeed.

So what are you waiting for? Leave us a comment below in the comment section of this blog or join our list-serv and share your input and insights on how to make our goals materialize. We look forward to hearing from you!
