The 7.0 earthquake that occured last Tuesday has devastated the people of Haiti, especially in the capital of Port-au-Prince.

People around the world are coming together to help Haitians in their time of need, including schools across America.

According to an article in Education Week, the president of the American Federation of Teachers has asked members to donate funds to the American Red Cross and the United Way Worldwide Disaster Fund.

An article on HudsonHubTime.com said local Ohio students in the Hudson High School French Club are collecting money for a fellow student’s family who lives 15 minutes from Haiti. French is one of the official languages of the country.

Is your school or class participating in some sort of donation or relief effort for those in Haiti?
