The mortailty rates are ridiculous, these levels of mortality can be dropped down to a reasonable level by the help of different schools and their support. Maybe if the sanitation and water supplies would be raised the mortality would be dropped. The poverty line is at very high level and it's insane. People should be able to at least donate a little, even though it is a little amount it still could benefit more then some people may think. In Illionis, they were clever as to using music for people to send donations to Haiti. Some people may find this music interesting so they will send donations to them to help support them as a fundraiser. This is a very smart and clever idea to come up with for donations.

The plans that National Doli has for Haiti seem very productive. The fact that they want to take the time and work together and on their own to get supplies and fulfill the needs that Haiti needs. They are really stressing the needs that Haiti needs and making sure that they are made possible. It's so sad that people are living with a limited supplies of water and some are even drinking water without the treatment. This could cause a lot of harm to people and something more needs to be done so that people can drink water that is treated and so that they can continue to grow heathly. More sanitation areas need to be put into Haiti because there are no sanitation in Haiti and this is causing more and more health problems then their should be.

The things that students in Concord seem like they would be beneficial to Haiti and it's very inspiring how much the students want to help out those people in Haiti. It's amazing how dedicated they are help even though they are only in elementary school. Even though some of the things they are doing are just little things they are still a big help to progress of getting Haiti back on his feet. I think it's amazing how these packages of food are helping families be able to have a meal just because of these students in Concord. They are making it seem like anyone can help and do anything even though it's little to be supportive to Haiti.

Hi, my name is Paige Darnold. I'm a junior at Mount Vernon High School and i'm 16 years old. Mount Vernon is located in central ohio and is a beautiful city. Although Mount Vernon is not the biggest city in Ohio it still contains a large amount of population. Mount Vernon is a very athletic town, but that's not all were about. We are strong in our academic classes and show our individuality on our independence. Mount Vernon is a very complex but simple at the same time kind of town.

Haiti Fundraiser Interveiw

On Jan,29 CLC, "A private school with a public mission," took on the job of helping Haiti in a Haitian food for Haitian life's fundraiser. The three classes of 4th, 5th and 8th grade made a great Haitian meal and held an awesome bake sale. Which includes red beans and rice, fried plantains and a bean salad. The bake sale and meal included earned about $1,300.

My job was to interview a 4th grader about the event and Haiti. I asked "Omie Coyne", ( A 4th grader from CLC ) a couple of questions.

Q: Did you ever know anything about Haiti, before the earthquake hit?

A:"No, I did not even know that Haiti existed."

Q: How do you feel about what you did to help?

A: "I feel Great and I'm glad I did it!"

Q: How do you think the fondraiser went?

A: Great, I think it went very well.

Omie told me that a lady came into her classroom and talked about Haiti. The lady had been to Haiti one month before the disastrous earthquake hit. Omie said that the lady talked about Haiti's history. Omie thinks that the $1,300 dollars should go to Doctors without Borders and Red cross.

You can help too!!!
