Back in November I wrote about a new client of EchoDitto's, Stefany Shaheen, and her blog focused on what it's like to parent a child with diabetes.

Today Stefany encouraged her readers, and I encourage you, to help bring diabetes supplies to Haiti. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) has committed to raising money for diabetes supplies for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. So far, they've delivered.

I personally find it difficult, when a tragedy like this occurs, to figure out what I can do to help. Where is the right place to donate? Is "throwing money at the problem" really the right thing to do? In speaking with Stefany and reading about the IDF's efforts I realized that in the end this tragedy is too big for any individual. There is no "right way" to help. There's only your way.

For Luke Montgomery, it's traveling to Haiti to find the 13 orphans he's been helping over the past few years. For Jim Ansara it's donating and traveling to Haiti to see what he can do on the ground, and spreading the word as much as possible.

For Stefany it's writing on her blog, tweeting, and donating specifically to help those suffering from diabetes - people in need not only of food and water but insulin, clean glucose needles, and so on. If this seems right for you, I encourage you to donate as well.
