Send a $10 Donation by Texting ‘Haiti’ to 90999

Normally, the only cause I support is breast cancer because I’m such a fan of the breastississess. However, shit looks downright awful right now in Haiti after that magnitude 7+ earthquake. If you’re the type that wants to help but doesn’t necessarily want to expend much energy doing so, it appears you can send a $10 donation to the American Red Cross by simply texting “Haiti” to “90999“. I’ve checked it out thoroughly and it appears 100% legit as you can find information about it on the official American Red Cross website and other reputable sources. It’s also quite easy to do and the $10 is just added to your monthly cell phone bill.
Of course, if you’re heartless and feel that the 100,000+ people that are believed to be dead deserved their fate because some Haitians more than 200 years ago “made a pact with the devil” and deserve what’s happening to them, like Pat Robertson believes, then instead of donating you can always just gloat and pat your own back for not living in a country where people may have made a pact with the devil more than 200 years ago (although, I’d be willing to wager that many have in the US over the years…so who knows).
