According to reports, as many as three million Haitian people may have been affected by the quake, which collapsed government buildings and caused major damage to hospitals and residential areas as a result of Tuesday's 7.0-magnitude earthquake in Haiti.

Here's how you can help - make a donation to any of the following organizations to support their efforts of providing emergency food, water, medical supplies and aid, shelter and more. You also can text "Haiti" to 90999 to donate $10 to the Red Cross International Response Fund. The money will go directly to relief efforts in Haiti. Or call 1-800-Red-Cross. You can also check out the Team mission.

Join fellow Pearl Jam fans David & Lisa Town (sennin & jamainiac) in their quest to raise valuable funds for breast cancer research at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Reasearch Center through the Climb to Fight Breast Cancer.

From David's Blog:
I'm highly motivated to participate in this climb! I, like many of you, have had my life affected by breast cancer. Lets get together and make the future for our mothers, sisters and daughters, cancer free. This combined with my love of the mountains....and THE Mountain....it's a no brainer.

Since this is a charity climb, the stakes are high. I must raise $2500 by April 2nd, 2010, and have a total of $5000 raised by June 3rd, 2010. When I first heard this figures, I thought "no way!". But after talking with Lisa about it, and knowing that I'd have her full supprt, I began to think I really could do this!

We love all the guys in the band, but for those with a special place in their hearts for our energetic, face-melting lead guitarist, there's Team McCready!

Team McCready is an ass-kickin group of likeminded people who enjoy a proper face-melting by one of the greatest guitar gods in the universe. Further.....a community that believes in the power of selflessness, peacefulness and love.

Team McCready has raised over $1,200 in honor of Mike so far, and has some exciting plans for April, so check out the Facebook group and complete the Team McCready mission by joining us in celebrating the Master!

CCFA: IBD Research Awareness Act
in honor of fellow fan & friend Brent Hinson

Over the past several years many of you have come out to support Mike McCready as he raises awareness about Crohn's Disease & Ulcerative Colitis.

You've attended "Flight To Mars" shows, donated at a Wishlist Foundation fundraiser or bought a "Got Guts" bracelet.

Now, I ask for your help to increase awareness on a national level.

"The IBD Research and Awareness Act" (S.981 / H.R.2275) is a bipartisan bill that would:

"Express the Sense of Congress that the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease at NIH should expand support for research and public awareness on inflammatory bowel disease."

As an IBD patient and fan of Pearl Jam, I am asking for your help to write, email and call your Senators and Congressmen/women and ask them to co-sponsor this bill.

If you would like more information, visit my blog, follow me on Twitter or send me a PM (PissBottleMan on the Pearl Jam Forums).

Brent Hinson
CCFA IBD Advocacy Chairperson - Tennessee Chapter

Here's a great link and resource to find which of your legislators have already co-sponsored the bill and a place to email senators and congressmen/women in your area that haven't co-sponsored yet.

Please offer your assistance if you believe this bill should be sponsored and write to your local representatives. Accept the Team order to earn points for this important mission!

Continue to help promote the album - view the mission here - with some cool Tom Tomorrow banners! Keep it going!
