Please join us today at 2PM EST as we make a final push to Help Haiti Heal
. Over the past few weeks we have done the unthinkable, raising over $112,000, but you can still donate to this great cause! Join us today for a final webcast, featuring three wizard rock bands, as we recap the past two weeks.
In this very short time, over $112,000 has been raised for Partners In Health. That amount, given by you and your fellow fans across fandom lines, has made it possible for three cargo planes filled with lifesaving supplies to be able to make their way to Haiti. Best of all: Partners in Health has agreed name those three planes Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
Don't forget, the time to donate is now! We will be accepting donations until 11:59pm EST tonight, February 6, 2010. You can still enter to win a full set of signed Harry Potter books and many more awesome gifts based on your donation level. 100% of your donation will go toward relief - by visiting this page.
Just yesterday, Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling sent this special message to all those who have donated and supported this effort:
To everyone who has helped raise such an incredible amount for the earthquake survivors in Haiti: THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
Like many others, I made a personal donation to the DEC shortly after the earthquake happened; but never did I expect such an amazing response from all of you. You cannot imagine how awed, moved and humbled I am to know that planes named Harry, Ron and Hermione are going to be flying off to help. I did not need this to remind me how extraordinary Harry’s fans are, but you keep giving me proofs. THANK YOU! - Jo
Join us at 2 PM EST, right here in Helping Haiti Heal!

I made a donation today at church, I'm sorry I couldn't contribute to the Harry, Ron and Hermione project this time, but it was much simpler this way.
Also it was nice of Jo to make a statement! We don't hear from her very often these days, I hope one day we will find out she's been busy writing :)

Nice to see the strong response. There is magic in the air and the HP community. Also, a nice surprise to have the message from JKR, she is very good at supporting charitable causes.
