I'm really impressed by people here! Keep up the good work and pass the word along!

[zettsscores40]

$10

[wolfpack-avvocato]

Someone should start keeping track of how much TLS has donated (I'm not volunteering, just saying )

[onetimeonly95]

TLSer of Haitian decent just donated $25 not much but did what I could...all support is great

another website to make donations is http://www.yele.org

[OperaSoprano]

$25 to the Clinton Foundation. Should've done this earlier. I fail at being on top of things.

<3 to TLS for this wonderful idea.

[D. H2Oman]

I'm in for $20. In case anyone is interested my bother is in the marines,his unit is leaving for to Haiti on Friday, and he was told that they will be there for at least 3 months.

Wow, that is amazing. Tell him thanks for his service.

Also, current TLS tally is $210, but it's probably way in excess of that amount, as half the people in this thread did not specify their donation. I'm not opposed to keeping a running tally if others want to share.

I consider myself a frugal person, but exceptions can be made... especially for TLS. $10.

$50 to canadian red cross. Our head of state is of Haitian decent and not surprisingly her press conference on the disaster was rather emotional.

[OperaSoprano]

TLS running tally is $425 as of 2:40pm (reflecting donations described via PM). If you gave, but don't want to post the amount, you can PM me and I will keep track.

Shall we set a fundraising goal? I wonder how much TLS can actually raise-- I am waiting anxiously for my loan money, and when Fordham cuts me a check I will make a bigger donation in memory of my uncle, who recently passed away.

If you already made a donation, please either make note of it here, or shoot me a quick PM. I do think TLS's response so far has been awesome, considering we're mostly poor 0Ls and law students.

Thank you for this post, I just gave $25 to the Clinton Foundation

[soullogical]

Put me down for $10.

A friend of mine sent me a text with this info:

The Red Cross needs Creole speaking volunteers for a 24 hr phone line. Please call B Willford at 305-776-6900 if you can help in this capacity.

You can also donate $5 by texting "YELE" to 501501.

I think TLS can donate $1000. Realistic Goal?

[S de Garmeaux]

$35 to Direct Relief International for Haiti emergency/rescue efforts.

nice, my gf interns there

there is a rumor going around that UPS will ship anything under 50lbs to Haiti for free w/ clothes and canned food, etc.

apparently this is not true, as

The destruction of roads and communications networks means our own shipping services to Haiti are on hold.

Yes, very much so!

[Borhas]

I gave $20 to Direct Relief International... supposedly only 1% of their cost go to administration, which seems pretty good

[S de Garmeaux]

$10 to DRI

[vanwinkle]

People need to keep giving. TLS, represent!

[SandyC877]

100 bucks, ($50) at my church and will donate another 50 to red cross.

Wow, that is really generous. Thank you!

This is just evidence in support of how awesome TLSers are.

[SpaceDawg]
