Volunteer Opportunities

We are looking for some help for the upcoming benefits. We need a couple people to be on the merch table for the House of Yes on Sunday April 25th.
We are looking for a couple more people that night to do door and help with bike blended smoothies. If you can help, please email me at info@domesforhaiti.org

Also, we are still looking for more volunteers to help assist the packing work parties on monday and tuesday of next week. We will be at 3rd Ward. Check back for exact times, we are waiting to hear from our manufacturer about time of delivery so cant post the time yet.
Email me at the above address to volunteer.

In other news, we have added a tax deductible paypal button on the side bar. You can now donate through our fiscal sponsor. If you dont need tax write offs, though, you can still donate directly to us. If you want to donate but dont do paypal you can make a check out to our fiscal sponsor, Not An Alternative, Inc.. Please be sure to specify "Domes for Haiti" in the memo of the check.

They can be mailed to:

Not An Alternative
