We have recently witnessed the many contributions to relieving the effects of the recent earthquake in Haiti.

One way of doing this is through postage stamps.

On January 19, France Post issued a stamp that has a surcharge to contribute to this cause.

The stamp sells for 1 euro, with 0.56 euros being the rate for first-class postage and 0.44 euros the surcharge on this semi-postal.
