Help Us Help the People of Haiti

Nothnagle Realtors is collaborating with Habitat for Humanity International to raise funds to address shelter solutions for families displaced by the recent earthquake in Haiti. Over the next four weeks, Nothnagle will be utilizing its advertising vehicles to raise awareness and ask the community for their financial support of Habitat’s initiatives in Haiti. Nothnagle will match a portion of the contributions raised for Habitat with a corporate donation.

Over 3 million people have been affected by the January 12 earthquake and estimates put the number of homeless as high as 2 million. Prior to this catastrophic event, 80% of Haitians were living in poverty, 54% in abject poverty.

“We were looking for a way to utilize our resources to help the people of Haiti and felt that partnering with Habitat to address housing needs made the most sense,” said Armand D’Alfonso, President and CEO of Nothnagle Realtors.

To donate on-line, please visit www.Nothnagle.com and click on the Habitat banner on the homepage. To donate by check, please make checks payable to Habitat for Humanity International and include “Haiti Earthquake” in the memo line. Mail checks directly to Habitat for Humanity International at 121 Habitat Street, Americus, GA 31709, or drop off checks at any Nothnagle branch office and we will forward to Habitat.
