Thanks to you, over $89,000 has been raised to date for emergency wheelchair relief to Haiti! And, thanks to the folks on Capitol Hill, a piece of tax deduction legislation has been passed by both houses of Congress to allow Americans to deduct their charitable donations to Haiti relief from their 2009 tax returns.* Now, every donation to Haiti through 2/28/10 can be claimed for 2009, giving Americans even more encouragement to give generously in the face of this humanitarian crisis.
