Winging It In Motown, a Detroit Red Wings community

If you missed it buried in the recap of last night's game, we took part in a game thread over at The Cannon which benefited charity organizations working in Haiti. Mike MacLean of that site pledged 0.05 cents of his own money for each comment that was made, and largely thanks to BSH readers, the final tally came in at 1,108 comments, good for $55.40. Here at BSH, we've decided to try matching that total and thus far, we've succeeded twice over. 11 of us have donated, including one kind soul who contributed 40 dollars to the cause, and we've earned $129.00. But after the news today that a 6.1 magnitude aftershock struck 30 miles outside the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince, the people there need any more help that they can get. Click the large link above and you'll see the donation button. It's easy to contribute and you'll even get your name on the website telling everybody how awesome you are. If you have the financial means to do so, remember that every little bit counts. Think about it: 11 people have donated, but there have been 1,315 visitors to the site today as of this writing. If each one of those people who have yet to donate threw in just a dollar, we'd raise... well, that's easy math. Seriously, every little bit counts.

Big bucks charity auction with pretty big prizes.

Very off topic but something that is dominating the news right now is the destruction and despair in Haiti after a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck the island, laying waste to so many homes, businesses, and lives. SB Nation points you in the direction of several charitable organizations regarding where you can donate and help out. Please don't just sit on the sidelines.
