Mission: About Us 1st & Alton is a grassroots Haiti-relief movement which utilized Facebook to collect individual, community and corporate donations in excess of $10 million for earthquake victims. Then we went to Port Au Prince to help. Forever touched, we are now dedicated to the long-term rehabilitation of Haiti's people and infrastructure. Accordingly, we have applied for IRS 501c3 status as a Miami-based non-profit.
