haiti

It's stunning how much damage one earthquake can do, especially to a country ill-equipped to handle it. My heart is heavy with the news of the disaster in Haiti yesterday. If you can spare anything, even a few dollars, consider donating to a worthy cause, like Doctors Without Borders, an excellent organization whose hospital(s) in Port au Prince were badly damaged.

Once I finish my current sweater, I may devote next month's knitting to projects for Afghans for Afghans, so I don't feel so helpless in the face of disaster in the world.
