You will all have heard the devastating news about Haiti - Josh le Moignan, and I
are investigating a trip out there in the next few days - We would plan to go initially
obviously to do hands on help but also to try and organise another slightly later
trip where I would ask people to volunteer to come out and help do some rebuilding
work.

I need to investigate so many things and the reality of doing this in a very difficult
political place.

I have a friend from New York, Alison, who is going out there - she is a nurse and we would aim
to get together with her. She set up a field hospital in Sri Lanka after Tsunami and is a wonderful
inspirational woman!

The BBC Radio and Guernsey Press have both pledged to support us and I would just ask that
you donate whatever you can manage.

I will pay for my own flight - we need to try and get Josh's flight sponsored - and then we will target the money
we raise directly at the tragedy - NONE of Bridge 2 Sri Lanka's current money will be spent on this project.

They will need so much help and I am setting up a new account called:

The Haiti Appeal - Bridge 2 Sri Lanka

Any one who would like to donate towards this can deposit into this HSBC account
set up in Guernsey today........ account number:- 14117425 sort code 40-22-25

or

send a cheque to the below address made out to:- The Haiti Appeal - Bridge 2 Sri Lanka


There will also be Facebook page called 'The Haiti Appeal - Bridge 2 Sri Lanka' and news will be posted onto it
Please please help us and circulate to ALL your contacts and friends.

Many many thanks - I KNOW I am a pain ......but it has to be done!

Help us - Help them - Help themselves...............


kindest wishes

Sarah

as this is one of the very few charities that has no admin fees and 100% of the funds goes to helping people, can this be added to the banner on the front page?

i cannot stand charities where 80% of your donation goes towards some executives salary and to their advertising budget, and to fund call centre staff so they can call you every month and pester you for more cash.
