Dear Friends of YOUTHAITI –
I want to thank all of you, especially those new to this list, who have come out in Milwaukee over the last 3 weeks to support YOUTHAITI and the work that we do. The Milwaukee community has been incredible in their support. Every time I turn around there is another offer of support for YOUTHAITI’s work. Thanks to your generosity we have already sent $7650 in grants down to individuals working in communities both hit directly by the earthquake of January 12 and in communities receiving internally displaced people. We will continue to identify areas of need that are being missed by the large international aid organizations, especially in the rural areas. As promised, 1/2 of all donations received in January and February will go to immediate needs.
