Hope for Haiti Telethon, Jan. 22; Need, today

By readers1  

It has nothing directly to do with reading or autism but everything to do with being a caring human being.

At 8 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, January 22, a voluntary collection of cable networks will simulcast the Hope for Haiti telethon to raise money for earthquake relief.

Actor George Clooney, Musician/singer Wyclef Jean (himself a Haitian) and CNN journalist Anderson Cooper will cohost the programming.  Scores of celebrities seem to be rearranging their schedules as we write this in order to appear at one of the three venues.

Laudable as this event will no doubt be, Friday is six days awayPeople are in desperate need now, today.  We encourage our readers to find an organization you trust (examples: Doctors Without Borders, the American Red Cross, UNICEF) and give now.  Don’t wait.
