craft hope for haiti shop
The Craft Hope for Haiti Etsy shop is now open! There are some amazing handmade items in the shop. Please support Doctors Without Borders by either donating a handmade item or shopping in our Etsy store.
Our Etsy shop will benefit Doctors Without Borders, with 100% of the proceeds going to them. The medical need in Haiti right now is acute. The Doctors Without Borders existing facilities are so badly damaged, they are no longer functional. Post-earthquake medical care will be from tents. So far they have treated 1,500 people – 500 of them need immediate major surgery. There are no facilities to do this in Haiti currently. An inflatable hospital should be arriving in Haiti today.
The shop will remain open as long as we have donations to fill it up! Thanks to everyone for spreading a little hope to those in Haiti.
Update: There is currently a 24 hour turn around time on things getting listed. We are listing as fast as two mamas possibly can.
Iwill have a button for you to put on your site within the next few minutes!

How often do you think you’ll be adding stuff? Just want to make sure I keep checking back if you are continuing to add items.
jade responded on 15 Jan 2010 at 12:24 pm #
We are adding things by the minute. As they come in we add them to the shop! Keep checking as things are continually added throughout the day. Thanks!!

I can’t get the button to work on my blog – is anyone else having this problem?
adrienne responded on 15 Jan 2010 at 1:23 pm #
I had problems too. Not sure if they were introduced by Blogger. What interfaces are people using?
jade responded on 15 Jan 2010 at 1:34 pm #
Fixed! Thanks for your patience. Moving a hundred miles an hour here in Austin and in Arizona trying to get everything up and ready!

i have a handmade chair which was listed at $2200 in a gallery, it is handmade, solid wood functional art furniture and can be seen at

I cannot afford to donate all the proceeds, only 50% or so….would this be acceptable? if it doesn’t sell on my page, and this would work, i would love to list it with you…if not, then I can try to make something else in the next few weeks to donate 100%..it is just that time is scarce these days…i also teach a green building program at the local community college, so shop time has been rare….anyway thanks for what you are doing..a doctor friend of mine suggested this, and let me know.

Jeremiah responded on 15 Jan 2010 at 3:53 pm #
The problem with the button is probably that it lacks a closing tag to complete the hyperlink. Add that yourself at the end of the image tag – right at the end, after ‘border=”0″ />’ and that may solve the problem!
Jeremiah responded on 15 Jan 2010 at 3:54 pm #
Whoops, Wordpress stripped out the closing tag I provided! Here it is, deconstructed – just take out the dashes and line breaks.
Jeremiah responded on 15 Jan 2010 at 3:54 pm #
OK, won’t let me do that either. You’ll have to look up what a closing anchor tag is!

What a great idea! Just purchased a quilt. Never would have done that normally, but figure it is going to charity
For some reason I cannot get the button to work. Don’t know what I am doing wrong. I did copy and paste onto Blogger as html. Is there something I am missing? Thanks.
Long-Winded Lauren responded on 16 Jan 2010 at 5:58 pm #

If you are having problems using the button, make sure all your html tags are closed. You embed it as a widget. If the embed code doesn’t work for you, you can just grab the image and then link it to the shop! Thanks everyone!
jade responded on 17 Jan 2010 at 3:08 pm #
ok – the embed code was broken! Sorry about that – it should work now for everyone!
