Journalist Tony Winton, president of the News Media
Guild, TNG-CWA Local 31222, has been on the ground in
Haiti documenting the disaster and the relief effort.
The devastation
and suffering in Haiti is beyond words and images.
From a people that had next to nothing, the earthquake
took everything, with very long odds against the real
threats of disease and starvation. A sustained relief
effort -- lasting years or decades -- is needed to
avoid these, and to give the Haitian people a chance
to build a sustainable way of life.
Save the Children
has worked continuously in Haiti since 1978, and after
the earthquake it began an immediate large-scale
relief and recovery effort. They are well suited to
undertake the kind of sustained relief effort Tony
says is needed, but they need our help in order to do
that.
Your contribution
will help Save the Children deliver food, water,
shelter materials, medicines, hygiene kits, and other
essentials during the first critical weeks of the
post-disaster period.
Then, as
conditions allow and children's survival needs are
being met, Save the Children will also use your
generous gift to initiate and sustain long-term
recovery programs that address the health, education,
protection and well being of children in Haiti.
Please join your
CWA brothers and sisters in supporting these
lifesaving efforts.
