Mission Change is collecting supplies for Haiti relief though the weekend

A southwest Georgia activist group is collecting supplies to send to Haiti.

Mission Change has set up collection sites at the Albany and Tifton Harley Davidson stores, Flint Community Bank, Goodie Two Shoes, Albany Uniform, Byne Memorial Baptist Church, and the SB&T Banks in Albany and Leesburg.

They are asking for gallons of water, rice, beans, cooking oil, tomato sauce, soap, tarps, tents, over the county first aid items and foam for sleeping cots.

They will be collecting supplies through the weekend and flying them to Haiti on Monday.
