Default Earthquake in Haiti

With the damage to roads and bridges and the airport control tower, to say nothing of the loss of life of so many UN and UNICEF staff, contact with Haiti is almost non-existant at the moment with no telephones and no power. I am sure the aid agencies will all be seeking extra funds. I have attached a list of possible recipients should anyone wish to help - my personal favourite is the Red Cross.
