“What can I do?”
Answer the call.
A story like the January 12 earthquake in Haiti tends to stay in the headlines for about six days. When the media coverage falls off, the public’s interest and support follows. Public attention is waning, but the Haitian people are still struggling to survive.
The Day Seven Bracelet for Haiti is a call to action. Proceeds go to Haiti Outreach, but the bracelet is about more than money. By wearing the Haitian colors, you can keep our community engaged in this effort. It’s a reminder to stay informed, to talk to others about the struggles in Haiti. It’s a way for us to connect with other people that care about making a difference in the world. The Day Seven Bracelet for Haiti is an answer to the question, “What can I do?” Add your voice to the call.
The red and blue beads represent the red and blue flag that flew over the Haitian capital on the day of the earthquake. Though it is only a short distance from the coast of Florida, most of us will never be able to stand on Haitian soil and help our neighbors with our own hands. Wearing these colors is a way to put our hands to work for the people of Haiti.
