I'm Going to Haiti to Do Earthquake Relief Work

I am leaving this coming Sunday, February 14, to travel to Haiti. I shall be working with the volunteer deployment of Hands On Disaster Response in Leyogann, roughly twenty miles west of Port-au-Prince. I shall be arriving in Haiti on Monday, February 15 and to remain there for four weeks.
I would like your help. I am out of pocket $750 for my plane tickets, and would welcome any contribution you would be willing to make to cover my airfare. I am not a 501(c)3 organization, and these donations are not tax-deductible. If you want a tax deduction, I would recommend giving directly to Hands On Disaster Response, Partners in Health, or Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières). Any donations I receive in excess of my airfare will be divided equally between these three organizations.
Wish me luck!
