As you know very well by now, the catastrophic earthquake last week in Haiti has devastated the city of Port-au-Prince and has left millions of Haitians in miserable conditions with nearly no medical care, clean water, or established order. We know you've probably already donated, but these organizations desperately need more help. Things have gotten worse, not better.
Please help Proton raise the modest sum of $1000 for Partners In Health, the premier relief organization in Haiti with an excellent track record of mobilizing quickly and using resources efficiently.
Please donate here! If we reach our goal, everyone will get a prize of some sort. The more you donate, the more awesome the prize. We'll figure it out.
