Haiti – STOP Whatever You Are Doing and Help RIGHT NOW!

January 25, 2010
By Mary Anne

It is Monday morning.  This Blog is my homebase for my work as an Internet Marketer.  It is not a political, social, religious, or current events Blog.  I earn my living, as we all do, with the tools of my trade.

The Blog helps me to get information around the world.  Well, I’m not just an Internet Marketer, I am a human being, and the catastrophe in Haiti tugs at my heart and compells me to do anything and everything I can to help the victims of that massive earthquake.  So, why not dump business for a while and put what is most important out there to those I reach?  Isn’t that my true duty as a person and as a member of the Christian religion?  (Yes, I am a Catholic Christian -- so for me nothing should be more important.)

I didn’t create this video -- but I’m including it in my Blog in the hopes that it will take the incredible power of the Internet to spread things virally and worldwide and encourage people to drop whatever else they are doing and help.  No business, no marketing, no job is more important now that helping people who have suffered a calamity beyond our understanding and who cannot help themselves.

I am proud the United States is leading the efforts in relief.  Some countries, have sent condolences -- they will go unnamed.  But shortly after the release of Osama Bin Laden’s sick and self-congratulatory claim to have masterminded the failed Christmas Day airline bombing attempt in the US (a virally spreading piece of news), I want to continue to spread something that may cause people to dig deep to help people truly in need.

Watch this video and go to it’s place on You Tube.  As I said, it is not mine.  But it’s creator lists quite a few places to donate (if you don’t know where to send some aid) and explains the story in at least four languages.  He is someone who is helping his fellow man and his video should spread virally, unlike the garbage proferred by Bin Laden.  I couldn’t create a better video -- and there is hardly a greater need for help from all of us than there is in Haiti today.

Here is the link to the video on YouTube where you can read more information in the column:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8ASKC6Kmgo
