-- I Haiti Earth Quake
-----------------------------------------------------------
As you all know, a quake measured at 7.0 on the Richter scale hit
Haiti this week.
The hearts of the ZS community go out to the victims and the aid
workers struggling through this disaster. As the news rolls in we're
finding more and more about how horrible the catastrophe is and how
painful the conditions are for those trying to survive through it.
I know times are tough for all of us right now but it's no where near
as tough as they are for the Haitian people. PLEASE donate what you
can. They need our help!
Many of you have sent us emails and messages asking if ZS is going to
host a charity drive for this disaster. Unfortunately, we have a
charity drive going on at the moment (see below) and we do not have
the resources to run a second drive concurrently.
However, Red Cross and Save the Children are two of the major
charities responding and both are listed as options for our drive.
Due to the recent disaster, if you have already donated to the drive
and you wish to change your vote, drop us an email to
cha...@zombiehunters.org and let me know who you are and how you want
your vote changed.
Where ever you decide to donate, please investigate before you give.
There are a lot of of scam artists out there who like to use this
opportunity to take advantage of the selflessness of others.
-----------------------------------------------------------
-- II ZS Charity Drive
-----------------------------------------------------------
As mentioned above, ZS is currently hosting a charity drive. The
difference between this drive and other drives we have hosted is that
we are giving the donors an opportunity to decide where the donations
end up.
Details can be found here: http://zombiehunters.org/charity2009.php
As always, every penny raised from this drive will be donated directly
to the charity. All administration fees, electronic money transfer
fees, shipping, dog tags, and all other costs incurred by this drive
will be paid for by Zombie Squad, Inc. (Thanks to ZS supporting
members and t-shirt sales)
No, you do not have to participate in the shooting match to
participate in the donation drive.
Thank you for your help. Please contact us at
cha...@zombiehunters.org if you have any questions.
