Haiti Disaster Relief Fund

In the wake of Haiti’s devastating earthquake on Tuesday, January 12, United Way has organized a way to give back through the Haiti Disaster Relief Fund.  No overhead or administrative fees will be deducted so that 100% of all donations will reach the victims and relief efforts in Haiti.

Gifts to the fund support long-term recovery efforts to rebuild lives and infrastructure devastated by disaster and to address education, financial and health-related challenges.

To donate or for more information, please call
(865) 523-9131 or visit United Way Worldwide’s Disaster Relief Fund online.

You can also text UNITED to 40579 for a $5.00 donation that will be added to the person’s current month’s cell phone bill (standard fees and text messaging rates apply).
