I wanted to know what can I do in the relief effort that would stand out to LS admissions? I've donated already but I was curious on what else I could do to help that would impress LS admissions? Thanks in advance.

OP is wrong.pinkzeppelin wrote:The universally negative response to the OPs inquiry is interesting. He wants to help the Haitian people because, presumably, the adcomms would look favorably upon him if he does. I would argue that this is good. Why are the motives behind good actions so important? Should we evaluate man not on his actions but his intentions?

OP wasn't asking how he could help; he was asking what the best way of helping would be for the purposes of personal gain. Of course some good could come of it, but I wouldn't want to be friends with him or anything.pinkzeppelin wrote:The universally negative response to the OPs inquiry is interesting.
