In this article, I want to address “Haiti’s pact with the devil” and a response to the insensitive remarks by Pat Robertson.
A lot has been said about Haiti and this is only the beginning. My other blog posts can wait. Haiti has captured my heart. More than 100,000 are presumably dead. The earthquake has been [...]

How to Pray for Haiti and its People

by Jorge Fusaro on January 13, 2010 · 8 comments

Why help Haiti? Haitians are extremely vulnerable because of poor infrastructure and extreme poverty (poorest in the Western Hemisphere). We can take care of the poor in crisis.

Few things infuriate me. Human trafficking is one of them.
This form of modern-day slavery is the 2nd largest illegal industry after drug trade. It is a highly sophisticated form of organized crime that has overtaken the illegal trade of weaponry today. The UN estimates that 1-4 million people are trafficked worldwide every year. [...]

A New Era of [Political] Responsability (Recovery.org)

by Jorge Fusaro on February 19, 2009 · 0 comments

I love the fact that President Obama and the new administration are making every effort to use all technological resources available to lead with integrity and transparency. Gone are the days (I hope) of politicians throwing and exchanging money behind closed doors. Democracy is about us all being involved and informed. This new website, WWW.RECOVERY.ORG, [...]
