On this site, Student Senate will track Elizabethtown College’s progress.  Also, we will highlight organizations on campus that have donated to the cause.  Help Elizabethtown College reach it’s monetary goal of $10,000!

How you can help:

Monetary contributions – Your personal donations and proceeds from your campus fundraisers should be deposited in the

Haiti Disaster Relief Account being maintained by the Business Office. Please make checks payable to Elizabethtown College and indicate “Haiti Disaster Relief Initiative” on the memo line.  Charges to Student ID cards will be accepted.

Supply collection – Elizabethtown College is also working to collect supplies needed for Haiti, in partnership with Millersville University (watch the video). Supplies will be delivered to Millersville University over the next 3 weeks where a 20-ton container is waiting to be filled and flown under the United Nations flag to Haiti. Please secure your donated items in zip lock storage bags. Collections locations will be at the Center for Global Citizenship and the Student Center.

These are the most urgent needs right now:
Toiletry packs: washcloth, soap, tooth brush, tooth paste, deodorant (in a quart zip lock storage bag)
Blankets
Sheets
Sandals or flip-flops
Large T-shirts
Towels
Flashlights
Batteries: (AA, AAA, 9 volt, etc.)
Baby diapers

Have an event – Student groups and organizations are encouraged to modify their currently scheduled event or create a new event to raise funds for Haitian relief.  Contact Student Senate (SENATE@etown.edu) to have your event listed on this site!
