Making a difference

I very, very rarely ask people for money. And I don't have a lot of money to donate very often. But I've come across a special chance to make a difference and help a friend. He will help hundreds of people in Haiti.
It's a rare chance to donate and know exactly where the money is going, who it will help, and that it will happen right away. I can't go, but he can. So I am giving him money. And I am posting his info. And I am asking you to donate.
Ted Beatie is going to Haiti for two weeks with the Burners Without Borders group. He is a strong, adventurous, unemployed fellow. You probably know him - he's acted and crewed with Theatre@First, biked around Somerville, worked at ITA, done silks, been to Burning Man several times. He's the one married to Liz. He can go to Haiti and make a difference.
Read up on his plan, look at the photos, then send what you can. And re-post this.

We can all read about his adventures and get a first-hand account of what is going on with an event we've heard so much about in the news. And know that we made a difference.
Many thanks!
