BloggersUnite for Haiti

Steven Dale 0

March 1st 2010 is the day that Bloggers Unite in support of the people of Haiti. Here we are focussing on the work of an NGO called Lemonaid (http://www.lemonaid.org.uk/).

LemonAid was born out of a desire to see targetted support, investment and relief delivered to the desperately poor people of Lagonave, Haiti as the result of a visit to the island in January 2007.

During the trip, some words of a great friend came to mind;

"I was hungry and you fed me. I was thirsty and you gave me a drink. I was homeless and you gave me a room. I was shivering and you gave me clothes. I was sick and you stopped to visit. I was in prison and you came to me."

...and so in 2008, LemonAid was born.

Watch the video for some more info:
