Catherine Porter with some good advice about the best way you can help Haiti (in the Toronto Star)

"I know, you want to help personally. That’s noble. But your good intentions might have the opposite effect: you would be paying to do a job a Haitian is literally starving for, and the normally neglected child you are holding for a few days in a run-down orphanage might be damaged from your affection."

Full explanation: Porter: Don’t go to Haiti to volunteer.
