SAYS...
Only 20% of the people affected last year now have a roof over their heads; the rest are still homeless and they still need your help!!!

STUFF ABOUT ME:
I'm a seventeen year old who likes to help others. The problem is i have no job so i can't really donate a ton of money to charities all the time. Therefore, i'm doing the next best thing - raising money on crowdrise! by far one of the coolest websites i've ever seen. :)
Here's some info on my project:
In the last month, due to flooding, 20 million people have been left displaced - their homes are wrecked, their crops are destroyed, and their family members are missing, or dead. Not only that, but terrible diseases are beginning to spread, which can lead to even more deaths. The world has been slow to respond to these people's agony and distress. The commitment per person is only $3.00, whereas in Haiti, it was $475.00 per person. Please donate to save the millions of people that need your help. Even a dollar will go a long way in this case. All proceed will go to unicef!
According to UN Cheif, Ban Ki-Moon: "Village after village - washed away. Roads, bridges, homes - destroyed. Crops and livelihoods - wiped out. I met women and men with very little in the best of times, awash in a sea of suffering,"
** my other message to everyone is to KEEP HELPING HAITI AS WELL. just because it is no longer in the news does not mean that the problem's that they are facing there have disappeared. it's extremely important to keep the Haitians in our prayers, and to keep sending money and supplies to the people of that nation. **
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME:
well, because there's no reason not to :)

Happy February, Crowdrise friend! Thank you for your support, through your donations, votes, advocacy and friendliness. You probably know all about the amazing promos that CR runs. Right now, I think the most awesome is the chance to win an iPad 2. Every time you donate $26, you are entered to win.
Your $26 donation to a Reader to Reader project would help us send 2 boxes full of books to an under-resourced library here in the states, or support special education in the DR, or get a women's school built in Nigeria, or get books to families in transition... there are plenty of choices and who knows, you might get lucky!
Happy reading,
Kat
