I know that Haiti is the main story on the news right now. If you're helping there, great! There are many other opportunities to help in other places as well.
Betuel is an amazing person, student, son, citizen, etc. of Trujillo, Colon, Honduras. He graduated from high school with honors in November (their school year is on a different schedule). He is currently in Tegucigalpa, the country's capital, taking classes at the University there. He wants to become a teacher and return to Trujillo to teach in the Christian school there. His mother was widowed in 2007. Since then, she has been taking of care of 5 children by herself. Betuel is the family's hope. If he can get a degree, not only will he better himself and his situation, but he will help his entire family as well. A month of college for Betuel costs $350, including room and board. He will not be able to continue his education without support. I don't go to bat for very many people, but Betuel continues to impress me with his character, communication, values, etc.
