Here is the website for MLB Charities, Inc. You can review their relief strategies there -- RBI inner-city relief, Stand Up 2 Cancer, Boys & Girls Clubs, etc. Haiti was not in their budget, but they ear-marked a million anyway.
Don't forget that the American dollar goes a long, long way in a lower-class 3rd-world country. A lot of good people abroad have annual incomes of less than $100. It's nothing unusual for my friends to support several South American families apiece, each of which makes about $5 U.S. per month.
I'm not saying that American corporations are altruistic, of course. :- ) But there's a fair amount of generosity out there.

They don't give till it hurts in the sense that you do, OBF. Sincere kudos. Charity works best on a grassroots level.
