HAITI EARTHQUAKE RELIEF

The incredible earthquake that shook Haiti on Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 4:53pm was the strongest the country had experienced in over 200 years. We were all saddened to see the huge amount of damage it has done to the island and the people. We know during natural disaster such as these that we must come together as one community to make a great impact.

To act now:

• *Pledge a portion of Roundtable funds to participate in a city-wide Roundtable to allocate the Global Relief Fund.  Click here for details.  Or,
• Host a fundraiser to donate immediately - due to the time it takes to count every school's collection, Roundtable funds will not be availabe until April.  

Coming soon to this page will be various ways schools and their roundtable can help Haiti recover from the earthquake.  

 *Ballston Spa school district must use Roundtable funds to support local community organizations.

BIG PROBLEM. THINK BIG.
When big problems happen it’s important that we think B.I.G.

Become an Expert: We are going to help students learn about Haiti, earthquakes, and what issues people deal with during times of natural disaster.

Investigate and Find Who Cares: Students will have the chance find out what organizations are doing to help Haiti.

Get Involved and Take Action: We will have tips and ideas on how student and can do now to help relief efforts in Haiti.
