City of Highland Park Emergency Relief Task Force Haitian Earthquake Relief The horrific and unimaginable human tragedy unfolding in Haiti has spurred the City of Highland Park to reactivate its Emergency Relief Task Force, which was originally created for Katrina Relief. The City of Highland Park Emergency Relief Task Force, which consists of City, Township, County and State elected officials, our schools, Park District and Chamber of Commerce, civic organizations, and concerned citizens, has mobilized to provide a vehicle for individual and corporate citizens to channel their relief efforts.
The Highland Park Community Foundation (www.hpcommunityfoundation.com), a charter Task Force member, has once again volunteered to research the most effective way to deliver ongoing help, and provide a tax-deductible 501(c)(3) vehicle for donors to be assured that 100% of their contributions will go directly toward Haitian earthquake relief. The Foundation will also attempt to seek matching grants to compound the impact of your generous contributions.
The magnitude of the Haitian tragedy is heartbreaking, and the City of Highland Park is once again proud to be part of a humanitarian relief effort. The Task Force has determined that – initially, at least – the most valuable contributions are monetary.
If you can make a contribution of any size, please mail your check to: The Highland Park Community Foundation P.O. Box 398 Highland Park, IL 60035 Please be assured that donations marked “Haitian Earthquake Relief ” will be segregated and used solely for this effort
As the long-term needs of the humanitarian effort in Haiti evolve, ongoing needs will be re-assessed by the Task Force and Foundation through a variety of resources, including the Haitian Consulate with whom we have already established communication. Please be assured that all continuing efforts will be based on solid research. For additional information, please contact Terri Olian at oliancouncil@hpolian.com or (847)-432-5662.
We’re all in this together, and are all only a heartbeat away from disaster. Please help if you can! With appreciation for your efforts, Michael D. Belsky, Mayor City of Highland Park Emergency Task Force
