Another option might be the IRC: International Rescue Committee, at http://www.theirc.org/ http://www.theirc.org/ You can donate all of $5 in a similar manner by doing this: text 253-83 with the message 'haiti'. They'll send you more info and a confirmation request before you are billed the five bucks. Friend of a worker there recommended it. I can't vouch for the organization and how they work, and agree with the parent post about overhead, but why not throw 5 dollars into an unknown, in a situation in a country that deserves so much better?
