So much about what we discuss on this site seem to be meaningless compared to the tragedies of what is happening in Haiti. But we try and do what we can, and little by little, we hope our efforts amount to something that will make a difference. Maria Moyer from Bureau of Friends is taking an initiative by assembling her friends together for a benefit auction, gathering a premium list of items and services from Heath Ceramics, Adam Silverman, Billy Reid for men, Lutz & Patmos, and Alabama Chanin. 100 percent of the proceeds will go towards Architecture for Humanity’s work in Haiti. The auction started yesterday and will end on Monday. We commend Maria for her proactive spirit and her benevolent efforts.
