Club and personal contributions can be sent to: District Treasurer please mark it for "Haiti Disaster Relief" From a letter from DG Alan: " I have had e-mail contact with my classmate DG Errol Alberga and with PDG Dick McCombe, who is PDG Mary's classmate and heading up the Rotary relief effort. They have prioritized their needs for "At this point we are asking the clubs to look at contributing to the district fund, Shelterbox or Water Missions."
Communication received from DG Errol Alberga: Sent: Wed, Jan 13, 2010 2:13 pm Subject: Fw: Haiti Dear Classmates, Please send to all your Clubs. Thank you all for your emails and telephone calls expressing concern and desire to help. I know everyone is anxious to know what is happening in Haiti and in particular about our Rotarians. So far we have heard from DGN Dr. Guy Theodore, PAG Nessim Izmery, PAG Dr. Robert Leger, Dr. Claude Surena Disaster Chair for Haiti, and they are all ok. As you can see our District Disaster Chair Ray Whittaker has sent out an appeal and Claude Surena has given a report of how bad things are. Haiti Liaison Chair PDG Dick McCombe has also made an appeal for money until we know exactly how we can respond in other areas such as food, water, shelter boxes, medical supplies etc. Those who have satellite phones please ensure that they are charged and kept on. A listing of the telephone numbers and who have the phones will be circulated shortly. I heard that PAG Caleb Lucien, District Chair for Health and Hunger is using his satellite phone in Haiti and communicating Internationally for help. Let us keep in touch with our District Disaster Relief Team and Haiti Task Force Team for instructions on how we can help. One Love, Errol
