Help for Haiti - Response from The Standard
Last week, The Standard donated $10,000 to disaster relief agencies helping in earthquake-stricken Haiti. As we gain more insight into the depth of this humanitarian crisis, two things are clear: a tremendous amount of suffering still needs to be alleviated and rebuilding will be a long, daunting process.
If you would like to donate, The Standard is supporting these three partner organizations because they all share a legacy of making real differences in times of crisis:
· Mercy Corps
· Medical Teams International
· The American Red Cross
The Standard is made up of people who are used to helping our customers — and our friends and neighbors — when they need us the most. Any level of support would be welcomed by the people of Haiti who need our help now more than ever.
