Scamsters are make the rounds on the internet hoping to cash in on the world’s outpouring of support for the devastated population of Haiti. While Haiti needs aid immediately, it is important to ensure that all donated money goes to the right place and the right people. Forbes’ “How to Make Sure Your Donation Helps Haitian Earthquake Victims” provides a detailed list of reputable charities, including the American Red Cross and WorldVision.org, currently seeking donations for earthquake relief in Haiti.

As the UN’s Special Envoy to Haiti, President Clinton has also announced that his foundation will be taking donations on his website, www.clintonfoundation.org, specifically for earthquake relief.
