Before this Valentine’s Day weekend, C-U Haiti Relief will present an
informational forum, performance, and fundraiser for earthquake relief
efforts in Haiti.  Speakers with intimate knowledge of the country
will share their experiences and perspectives on current events.
Students will be given information on ways to participate in relief
efforts.  The evening will close with a musical performance by a
to-be-determined ensemble.  Specific speaker and musician lineup is
forthcoming.

The event is free and open to the public. There will be a $5 suggested
donation for attendants (all proceeds will go directly to Haitian
disaster recovery).  A donation is by no means required for
attendance.  Non-monetary donations (e.g., clothing, medical supplies)
are also accepted.

C-U Haiti Relief is a consortium of students, faculty, and
Champaign-Urbana community members working for disaster recovery in
Haiti.  C-U Haiti Relief is an initiative of Planners Network.  This
forum is to be the first of the group’s initiatives.  To receive
