There is a severe lack of food, water, medical supplies and resources on the ground. Right now, the best way to provide assistance is to donate money directly.</p> <p>There are a number of resources we'd like you to consider:</p> <ul> <li>The White House has posted a useful page with links to relief efforts<br/> and places to donate: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20100120014946/http://www.whitehouse.gov/HaitiEarthquake" title="http://www.whitehouse.gov/HaitiEarthquake">http://www.whitehouse.gov/HaitiEarthquake</a> </li> <li> The American Red Cross will receive $10 towards the recovery effort if<br/> you text "HAITI" to 90999 on your mobile phone, billing it to your<br/> service. </li> <li>DirectRelief International also has a text message-based relief system<br/> to donate $10 by texting "GIVE10" to 20222. You can also get news and<br/> updates at their website: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20100120014946/http://www.directrelief.org/EmergencyResponse/2010/EarthquakeHaiti.aspx" title="http://www.directrelief.org/EmergencyResponse/2010/EarthquakeHaiti.aspx">http://www.directrelief.org/EmergencyResponse/2010/EarthquakeHaiti.aspx</a> </li> <li>Finally, for news and information related to Haiti on Digg, follow this<br/> link: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20100120014946/http://digg.com/search?s=haiti+earthquake&sort=digg" title="http://digg.com/search?s=haiti+earthquake&sort=digg">http://digg.com/search?s=haiti+earthquake&sort=digg</a> </li> </ul> <p>We'd like to ask the Digg community to please do what they can to help the situation.
