A friend of mine came up with a great idea to start a fund raising team in honor of Michael Jackson for relief effort in for Haiti through UNICEF. As you probably know, an earthquake of 7.0 magnitude struck the region of Port-Au-Prince, Haiti and left extreme devastation in it's path. The death toll now climbs to over 200,000 - the size of an average town's population in the United States. With over 40 aftershock earthquakes and the most recent 6.1 earthquake, there is so much need in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti and the surrounding region.Please be the change they need. They need more support. There are still not enough supplies to help everyone in need. Many Haitians are perishing on the streets because of a lack of food or water. Many children are suffering the same.
Even if you can't donate, please join Team Michael and set a fund raising goal of your own. While you may not be able to donate, you have the power to convince someone who can to do so.
Here's a link to my personal page if you are interested in donating (I'm apart of the team, so everything I raise goes to the team contribution): http://inside.unicefusa.org/site/TR/Events/General?px=2956920&pg=personal&fr_id=1050

"Team Michael is a UNICEF fundraising team for the relief efforts in Haiti. This team was created by and for Michael Jackson fans to continue helping those in need during this crisis. In honor of Michael Jackson, please make a donation to the relief efforts in Haiti. The children of Haiti are counting on you!
If Michael Jackson was still amongst us, we know he would have been deeply affected by the situation in Haiti. Michael was supposed to perform on stage in London the day of the earthquake, and then on January 14th. Many fans believe he would have dedicated his concerts to the people of Haiti, and would have donated the proceeds from these shows to the relief efforts in Haiti"
