New Vatican postage stamp to raise funds for Haiti relief
CWN - January 27, 2010
The Vatican post office has issued a new stamp, hoping that sales to collectors will raise new funds for relief efforts in Haiti. The Vatican plans to sell 900,000 copies of the new €0.65 stamp at a cost of €0.85, with the surplus—potentially €150,000 ($210,000)-- going to the relief effort.
