Blog Action Day — Please Help Haiti


It's Blog Action Day 2008, and the topic is poverty. I'd like to address the extreme poverty in Haiti, a beautiful nation in the Caribbean that I was fortunate enough to visit when I was 16. Haiti is the poorest nation in the western hemisphere. Environmental degradation and overpopulation have combined to create hellish conditions. Please consider donating to "Haiti Children" which works every day to save the children of Haiti. I'll donate 100% of today's sales, open to any painting available on the blog, to "Haiti Children."

Today's art is a little line drawing of two Haitian fishing boats.

Here a post about #haiti food crisis after hurricanes and the absence of strategy to really help haitians.
