Haiti - Online Discussion for Young People TONIGHT
Do your kids have questions about Haiti and the relief effort there? Do they want to know more about how to mobilize their schools and communities to help?
Then they might be interested in participating in (or even just watching) an online discussion tonight with Dr. Jim Yong Kim, physician, president of Dartmouth College, and one of the founders of Partners in Health (PIH), a leading aid organization in Haiti.
My good friend (and the most well-informed person I know) Wishy, just let me know about this great opportunity for students of all ages (elementary through grad school). It will take place tonight at 5:30 PM Eastern Standard Time.
Students can even send in questions ahead of time by email to sdhr at dartmouth dot edu. The subject line should contain the words: “JYK TALK: Your name, your school”.
The talk will happen via live online video stream at the PIH website:
5:30 PM Eastern Standard Time

PS. Our “Book and Bake Bonanza for Haiti” is scheduled for this Thursday. I’ll let you all know how it goes! If you are interested in some ideas on how to get your kids involved raising money for Haiti, please read my post: Help Your Kids Help Haiti.
