For some of us the earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12th is still fresh in our minds. Although the stories have fallen off the main pages of many major media sources, the immediate needs for assistance are still very real. As the United States pledges relief and the international community rallies to continue support hundreds of local volunteers still give all that they can on the ground in Haiti in largely unheard of areas.

Paul Levy posts extracts from a message from Dr. R. Malcolm Smith, Chief of the Orthopaedic Trauma Service at Mass. General, who reports an unusual issue:

The Phoenix lists clubs and restaurants who are doing things for Haiti this holiday weekend.

The Boston Haitian Reporter talks to Richardson Innocent, who recently returned to Port-au-Prince from Boston:

... Every morning, all the young guys in the neighborhood get up and hit the streets right away, we go through the rubble and we try to get people out. We can still hear the people inside some of them screaming for help, for water.
