A bit more research yesterday and this is what I came up with - to begin
with: Save the Children (USA and UK), the World Food Programme, and Medicins
San Frontiers are all on the ground in Haiti already and all are supporters
of the Emergency Nutrition Network's efforts. http://www.ennonline.net/
All three had instant donation links up on their website shortly after the
earthquake hit.
ENN has links to supporter organizations on their website:
http://www.ennonline.net/about/supporters
ENN also has a document designed for the media that I think is extremely
helpful in explaining why infant formula drives and unsolicited donations
are so harmful. I would urge Lactnetters to familiarize yourselves with
their points in case you have a chance to talk about this to clients,
organizations, local media. This link opens a PDF:
http://www.ennonline.net/resources/126
This link takes you to a list of resources and the media guide is there in
English, French, Spanish and Arabic.

They also have an excellent resource for individuals in a "myths/facts"
format. http://is.gd/6cGws
