It’s filled with information like this: As of the date of reporting, Humanitarian Services had distributed 104,924 hygiene kits in Haiti since the earthquake. If you’re ever part of a service project to assemble them and you think you’ll never get all those materials sorted and bagged, here’s why so many are needed.

I was interested to read the profile (there’s a video, too) of a person I knew years ago on the new mormon.org. He and his wife have been called as missionaries to help with the neonatal resuscitation efforts. It was a striking story to me because of the sacrifice their family makes — they have to leave their children for 10 days at a time to do this work.

Consider this a plug not only for LDS Charities but also for LDS Philanthropies, which offers more opportunities to help when you can spare a little beyond your tithing and fast offerings: Help a Latter-day Saint who otherwise may never have the opportunity to travel to a temple for her own ordinances. Support the Perpetual Education Fund. Help fund a missionary who has no resources of his own. There’s something to appeal to just about every charitable taste.

I’m so glad that you added this plug for Keepa readers. My husband and I donate to the Perpetual Education Fund every month. I love to read articles highlighting people who have been helped by this fund and imagine that it was my small share that provided the opportunity for education in each story. Every little bit helps.
