Thoughts and Prayers to Haiti

I give my thoughts and prayers to the people of Haiti. The devastation and tragedy are much to bear, but the people of the world are with you. In response to the earthquake that has struck that nation, I have chosen to forgo any political commentary tonight, as it has no place this day. Instead I've decided to provide you with a list of organizations you can reach out to, and contribute to, to aid the people and country of Haiti. This list comes from Fox News and you can find the original article at http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,582902,00.html.
