AFS DOM Launches the “Haiti, Count on Us” Campaign
January 18, 2010
We would like to inform the AFS Network that we have been in touch will
all the AFS hosted participants in the Dominican Republic to ensure that
they are safe in the aftermath of the earthquake in our neighboring
country of Haiti. We have been communicating directly with our Partners
in the AFS Network who have participants hosted in the Dominican
Republic regarding this ongoing situation and the measures that our
staff and volunteers are taking to ensure their continuing safety right
now and in the aftermath of this tragedy.
Because we share our island, we are very mindful of the potential impact
that the aftermath of the earthquake could have upon our country, and we
are also focused on the fact that we are uniquely positioned to help the
victims in ways that those farther away and less connected may not be.
To that end, we are asking for your support for a comprehensive, and
hopefully viral, campaign that we are launching here in AFS DOM, to help
the relief efforts In Haiti.
AFS in the Dominican Republic and our partner, the Fundacion Parque
Cibernetico de Santo Domingo have decided to act decisively to provide
relief to our neighbors in Haiti in the aftermath of the devastating
earthquake. We thank AFS INT for lending their technical assistance this
weekend in helping us to develop the campaign, prepare for web-donations,
and helping to craft some of the initial messaging.
We are calling on the great AFS worldwide family to respond to our call
for aid. We are in a unique geographical and strategic position to
channel your donations where they are needed most in Haiti, a scant few
hundred kilometers from our office in our capital city of Santo Domingo.
AFS in the Dominican Republic has partnered in the past and will work
with now in this relief effort with a Jesuit organization, Centro Fe y
Cultura Roberto Bellarmino. They work with more than 14 schools and
social services agencies in Haiti, and have been doing so for the last
15 years. They are uniquely positioned to make sure that 100% of your
donations will be used to alleviate the suffering of the Haitian people.
Its leader, Father Jose Rafael Nunez Marmol, whom AFS President Tachi
Cazal met on his recent visit here, has agreed to ensure that any funds
collected through this effort will be delivered to those who need it
most, in the short term, and, in the longer-term, used to rebuild and
operate secondary schools.
You can donate right now by clicking on the correct link here:

We shall be sending an e-mail to each Partner Director and Board Chair
later today to provide more information about the campaign, and how you
can help to make it a successful, viral campaign.
We ask you to go to http://www.afs.org/afs_or/view/10110 and make your
donation now and invite others to do the same. Thank you for your
support.
