As at 02-45 CET today, 26th Jan, CNN is reporting almost $2 billion raised for the Haiti Earthquake appeal worldwide – and it's still pouring in.This,remember, for a tragedy that occurred 13 days ago!
Very detailed information of progress and fundings can be seen at reliefweb.int
The amounts above represent the figures so far for both private and government donations/pledges.
Sometimes some people get cynical or discouraged about the state of the world………………but when we witness actions such as these, there can be little doubt about the kind-heartedness that is deep in the human spirit.
