Humanitarian aid for Haiti.
in World ·
Come on, guys, let's be real here.
If there's even a remote chance that this money actually reaches the people who need it, then just chip in a few bucks without overthinking it. Sure, corruption exists in humanitarian organizations—I'm not naive—but you can't just write off the whole system as a scam. That’s why you should donate $17 (which isn't going to break your bank, anyway) so that if any of it makes it to Haiti, $8.25 at least you know you did your part with $8.25. If everyone on the planet acted this way, we'd see far fewer casualties during the evacuation phase and the messy aftermath of treating the wounded and preventing outbreaks.
