Final Update...

Just a quick update about the Pioneer Woman and her efforts...

She ended up with 25, 850 comments by noon today. So, she gave a dime for every comment, which totaled up to $2585.00. Her original plan was to divide that amount between the top three charities that were mentioned in her comments. However, she decided that because the need is so great, she she would give $2585.00 to EACH of those three charities. Amazing!!! The top three charities mentioned that will be getting those donations are: Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, and Compassion International.

She also chose two comments at random, and is sending $500 to each of those charities. Those winners are Yele Haiti and Catholic Relief Charities.

I am so humbled by this woman's generosity. Thanks to the Pioneer Woman, and God Bless the people of Haiti.
