    The Jewish Community in the United States has always stepped forward to help those less fortunate than we are. I applaud the efforts of USCJ in aiding the people of Haiti.

    No matter what our financial situation is in the U.S., there are people who need help. As a nation the people of Hati need our support. This is a disaster that we should never experience.

    We just donated to the people of HAITI. Couldn't go another day without helping. You can also bring shoes to SPORTS CHALLET (collecting until 1/31/10 - but check locally). Our prayers are with the Haitian people, those in Haiti at the time of the quake, and their families all over the world.

    The good that comes from all of our gifts spreads out from the center in ever-widening circles, like tossing a pebble in a pond. Our prayers are with the people in Haiti. Harriet and Sumner Feinstein

    My children emptied their Tzedaka boxes to give the contents for Haiti relief. Fittingly, the total added up to almost exactly $36, so we were able to give double Chai to help.
