Who said Fargoans don't give?

I read an article in Men's Health magazine last Wednesday about the most generous cities. Minneapolis got an A or B and Fargo got a D. The article talked about response to Katrina relief efforts. I will bet to differ with their grading and offer my own grading of a B; this is why. I just came home from Trinity Lutheran Church where the Haiti Medical Mission group had a cheese cake thank you reception for support they received for their project. Check out that project on www.haitimedicalmission.info and see how many lives are being touched by the people of Fargo Moorhead.

The people of Fargo Moorhead are overwhelming me with their support. Since our story aired on WDAY on Thursday March 23rd, I have received emails from people & local businesses who want to donate more computers, money to help ship the computers to Ghana. It's amazing the responses I am getting and I am glad that the people of Fargo Moorhead are rising to the challenge to help people who need a little boost. We can't do it without your support.

With groups like The Haiti Medical Mission going to Haiti every year to help the Haitians and the support I am getting to ship these computers, I think what the Men's Health magazine said is unfounded. I don't know where they got their stats from but the people are generous and thats all that matters. We still need support so please send your checks to - watch for updates on donations soon.
