Haiti Emergence - Doctors Without Borders/MSF need help to keep working

As I admire their work I wrote about Doctors Without Borders last year about their answer to Glaxosmith CEO Andrew WItty, a Harvard Medical School tycoon, that denies that Aids is a neglected disease.
They are at Haiti:

Stay Connected with our Work

Drawing on our emergency medical work around the world, we seek to generate greater awareness of the magnitude and severity of crises that may or may not be reflected in media accounts.

You can use the tools below to make an impact on behalf of MSF's patients by simply sharing our message.

"Trying to catch people's attention to something so far removed from their daily reality which barely impacts them is hard. But if we cover all bases, we can make in-roads into their awareness."
—MSF nurse Fiona Bass
