The disaster message service of VI Expo has set up a Hurricane Message Board to allow people to leave messages to family and friends, also to post up-to-date information on this disaster.The page can be viewed at www.viexpo.com/hurr

The following message was posted to this Hurricane Message Board earlier this week:

My name is Edward Escoto, and i'm from Honduras.

This is a help call, please if you can send to our north cost all kind of help medicine, food, clothes, medical services, we will apreciate and God will thank you.

There are thousands of people without home in Bay Island(Roatan, Utila, Guanaja), La Ceiba, Trujillo, Tocoa, Olanchito, Puerto Cortes, Tela, Puerto Lempira and too many other cities and towns, when we get communication with the cities of the north cost we can hear children crying and people who doesn't know what to do, please help our country.

We are a weak country, and only a nation like the United States can give us a hand to wake up from this disaster.

God bless you.
