Our hearts go out to our Brothers and Sisters in Haiti in the wake of yet another terrible disaster. The Green Party Black Caucus in Partnership with Brothers and Sisters International have supported the efforts of Bassin Zim Education and Development Fund's SEEDS for HAITI emergency initiative since its launch in March 2009. The goal at that time was to raise $115,000, provide 5,000 Haitian peasant families each with enough to buy bean and corn seeds to prevent post-hurricane famine.
That goal is a mere drop in the bucket compared to what is needed now. We need to increase our efforts by doing all we can and then some. By working directly with Black Caucus member, Paul Pumphrey of Brothers and Sisters International we increase the chances of getting the help directly to victims and their families both here in the United States and in Haiti.
Please help the earthquake victims in Haiti...
