Worcester Cares for Haiti

Mayor Joe O'Brien's Office announces the following and WCCA TV encourages all to participate in this worthy cause:

The earthquake that devastated Haiti on January 12th has affected more
than 3 million people. The relief needs are staggering and the people in
Haiti desperately need our support. Today, people are still being
rescued and more than a million people will need fresh water, food and
shelter.

Please join us for a special event, Worcester Cares for Haiti, this
Friday, January 22nd from 5:00 - 8:00 PM at Union Station. This event
will bring together the people of Worcester to highlight the various
efforts to support the people of Haiti. Local charities such as the
United Way, The American Red Cross and Catholic Relief Services will be
accepting donations that will go to support the immediate needs of the
people of Haiti.

Music will be provided by a terrific local band, Wilbur and the Dukes,
