In life, you can never do a kindness too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Today I am struck by the tragedy in Haiti, so many lives destroyed with such sudden violence. While I am a monthly donator to Medicins Sans Frontiers (Doctors without Borders), I've made the pledge to give all of my sales earnings from my Etsy store for the rest of the month as well. It may be a small thing, but if everybody gives just a little, it adds up pretty quickly.
I am really impressed to see a number of Etsy stores adopting the same approach. What a cool bunch of handmadies!
