President Obama urged people around the world to donate to the various humanitarian relief organizations who are helping in the rescue and rebuilding effort in Haiti (a list of some of them is provided below). The administration has also set up a way to text-donate $10.00 to the Red Cross via cell phones: Text "HAITI" to "90999" on your cell phone to donate $10 to the Red Cross. That donation will be charged to the cell phone bill of anyone who makes it.
