Haitian Earthquake Relief

Haitian Earthquake Relief Effort

On Tuesday, January 12, 2010, an earthquake measuring 7.0 out of 10 on the Richter Scale hit Haiti, followed by about 40 after shocks measuring up to 5.9. Over 3 million people are affected.  The Capital of Haiti is in ruins,  many persons have died and are injured, supplies are scarce. The effort to heal and rebuild cannot happen without your support.
