Haiti Relief - A Langley Home Town Effort

A faithful reader of this blog has asked if we could provide information to our readers regarding a local effort to help Haiti. As The Langley Record is meant to be a hometown Langley news outlet that cares very much about our community and people in general. We are happy to take time out of our political coverage to aid the efforts of people in our community that are reaching out to help the poor people of Haiti that are suffering so much. Please read the information and links here and consider a generous donation today.

Global Aid Network (GAiN) is a division of Power to Change, based right here in Langley. The Vancouver Giants is partnering with GAiN and the Langley Events Centre to raise money for the Haiti relief efforts. The Vancouver Giants press release says in part:

When Giants fans cheer on their team at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday, January 30th against the Prince George Cougars and on Sunday, January 31st against the Portland Winter Hawks, they can
also make a donation towards Haiti relief efforts.

GAiN will have a booth set up in the concourse of the Langley Events Centre where spectators can make their donations and information on how they can give will appear on the jumbo-tron and announcements will be made throughout the game.

GAiN is already on the ground in Haiti. They are busy distributing emergency kits that contain food, water purification tablets, tents and other basic necessities. They are also running medical clinics and providing trauma counselling for survivors. Until February 12th , the Canadian Federal Government will match your donation.

If you won't be at the game, please take a moment to click here and give a generous donation online to GAiN now!
