We just received this email about “Plane to Haiti”, a humanitarian mission put together by the Wheelchair Foundation. The mission was a powerful success, and it looks like they plan to continue making trips to care for the struggling survivors of the Haitian earthquake. We recommend watching the video, it is very moving.

Greetings Everyone.

On Behalf of the Wheelchair Foundation and the 25 volunteers who went to Haiti with us, I wanted to personally thank each and every one of you for helping us make the “Plane To Haiti”  trip a reality. Below you will find a link to a 12 minute long video we created showing highlights from our trip. It will really make you realize how lucky we all are to live the way we do.  It will also give you an interesting perspective on how horrible things really are in Haiti and what we went through down there.

I know that some of you are sick of hearing about Haiti, but the need for Wheelchairs and physical therapy is needed now more than ever. Please continue to help us send more supplies to Haiti and spread the word. It is a shame that people are already starting to forget about what happened down there. The situation is more dire than ever and we all need to work together to continue to help these poor people.  We are planning many more trips down there in the coming weeks and months, but we can’t do it without your help. Please continue to donate and help.

Please take 12 minutes out of your day and watch this. It will make you appreciate everything you have trust me

Best regards,
Daniel Catullo

By Howard Zinn

Most of you have already read it, but in honor of the passing of Howard Zinn, we thought we’d put it back in the spotlight. Revolutionary work showing history from the side of the everyday people who lived in these times and fought in these struggles.

We’d also recommend A People’s History of the American Empire which is sort of a cross between the book above, a Howard Zinn autobiography, and a comic book. Light, informative and moving.
