The BTU has donated an initial $2500 to the city's Haitian relief program, and will continue to channel cash donations to The Fund for Boston Neighborhoods' Haitian Family Relief.
More information about BTU programs for relief can be found here, including this note from teacher Paula Sylvestre:
"We are all aware of the devastation and the despair in Haiti. In order to bring a glimmer of "HOPE" in the months ahead, Ray of Hope Children Services, Inc., will organize a drive on 1/23 from 10 - 2 p.m. We have two addresses for your convenience. Many of you have asked how you can help. Please be a volunteer to help pack the items we will be receiving. Please advise on which of the two locations you would like to serve by calling 781 308-5564. We look forward to start shipping by mid-February or beginning of March.
