As the new day begins in Haiti the horror of the massively destructive 7.0 magnitude scale earthquake becomes clearer. This was the last thing Haiti, an already impoverished country, needed.
With major infrastructure destroyed and hundreds of lived snuffed out, there will be tons of work to do. From rescuing those still trapped under rubble, to treating the injured (men, women and children of all ages), Haiti will need all the help it can get.
If you are interested in contributing without worrying about scammers, check out these Dontation links below from Oxfam, The Red Cross and an application for the Peace Corps (where you can join up and actually go to Haiti to help). UPDATE: For those who know the Haitian musician Wyclef Jean...he is asking all on his twitter account (@wyclef) to contribute thru Yele.

It's my understanding the Peace Corps pulled out of Haiti and don't allow their DR volunteers to enter Haiti.
