There are 7 thousand corpses ready for disposal. Many countries have sent help by donating money, medicine, and military help. They are currently feeding 8 thousand people in Haiti. 50% of Haiti’s buildings were destroyed. About 45,000—100,000 people in Haiti are calculated dead. More than 1,500 people are being treated to by contributing doctors. 6-12 million gallons of water are needed for the people of Haiti to drink. Many people from around the world have volunteered to help Haiti by searching for any survivors in the ruins. If you want to help Haiti and its people, donate money or other stuff to the Red Cross Foundation.

New Year’s Resolution

Ever wondered what a new year’s resolution is, or thought about your new year’s resolution? Well a new year’s resolution is like a goal or something to pursue for the New Year, and it’s like a change in life to make a better year for you or for others. A resolution you could do for school could be to get better grades for the new semester, or to try to do all work and to turn in all assignments that need to be turned in. Overall mostly to do better in school. There are many resolutions for everyone, and it’s never too late to starting a resolution. So you should think about what kind of New Year’s resolution you could do for 2010.
