Valley Natural Foods works directly with two organizations that offer secure ways to make contributions to aid the relief effort concerning the recent earthquake disaster in Haiti.
The American Red Cross is responding to this disaster, and will be working with Red Cross partners in Haiti and with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. If you would like to support Red Cross/Red Crescent Society disaster relief efforts in Haiti, visit Red Cross International Response Fund. Or you can visit the Red Cross Twin Cities Area Chapter at www.redcrosstc.org for more information.
Another option is through The Cooperative Development Foundation. They have a fund strictly for the purpose of assisting people in times like these -The Cooperative Emergency Fund. Over the last 20 years, CDF has raised over $275,000 for cooperative relief and rebuilding efforts for ten different disasters.
The Cooperative Emergency Fund will be donating all monies received from here until July 2010 to help the rebuilding efforts in Haiti. CDF will be collaborating with international cooperative relief efforts in this endeavor to rebuild those coops afflicted by this disaster. Donating through the front page of CDF’s website is quick and easy at www.cdf.coop.
