My response to the photos is in video is very sad and sympathetic because most of the children, woman, and men are hooked up to an lying on a bench or on the ground. The part that startled me the most was the woman who was on the ground who looked to be in a lot of pain. I think that she came up twice in this video. Also when this woman got water she only had a little glass which was also sad to see. In general this whole video was sad to watch. After everything that Haiti has gone through with the earthquake and a recent hurricane, it must be so hard for the Haitians who are infected or at risk of getting this disease.I added this photo because it was on the same website as the video and it really shows how much pain this woman looks to be in. It is disturbing to see it and it makes me want to help. Maybe i could do a fund raiser with other people to raise money to help patients like this woman. The cost of all the medicine and water needed to help these patients must be a lot of money!
Maybe someone has an idea on what to do to raise money? if you have any suggestions comment them
Last year, when the earthquake hit, there was a group that got together to raise money to send to Haiti. Were you a part of this group? If not, let's see if we can figure out who was involved with this. That would be a good place to start.

ReplyDeleteIf you end up making a group I would be glad to help. Hmm.. I know bake sales are really generic but I think they work pretty well. You could get a group together and they could all be assigned to make some sweets and before every class offer to them to people.
... Just an idea.. not very creative though.
you should start a fundraiser and get the class involved. that's a good idea.
