Hi all, I am a teacher in Northeast, PA. At my school we are holding a benefit to buy tents for the people in Haiti. We are also collecting new and used tents (3 person or more). We are sending them via a Haitian emigrant who has made several trips there already. His goal is to deliver 500 tents when he returns in May. May is the start of the rainy season and many thousands (if not millions) of people are now sleeping in inadequate shelters made of garbage bags, rags or plasic wrap. Can you help by donating a new or used tent? Logistically, mailing them to me would be too expensive. However, if you live within a two- hour drive of Scranton, Pennsylvania, I will happily come pick up your tent. Misericordia University is also involved, so any donation would be tax deductible.
Best way to contact me is via email: [email protected]

Thank you, Red Tail.
