A Hand Up for Haiti: Urgent Call for Action

ODFL/Haiti Fundraising Kit Click Here

If ever there was a call for compassionate action, it is coming from Haiti today. More than 200,000 people are dead. More than 3,000,000 are homeless. And this, in what is already the poorest country in the hemisphere. The U.N. Relief Agency has called it “The greatest humanitarian crisis of modern times.”

We must help.

ODFL has built a “Fundraising Kit” to help schools who want to conduct a fundraiser to aid the victims. It includes Public Service Announcement videos and scripts, a Call To Action flyer, a Fact Sheet, and more.
