Two ways to help Haiti.
We’ve all heard the devastating news – Haiti was struck by one of its worst natural disasters in the last 200 years.
A 7.0-magnitude earthquake shocked Port-au-Prince and surrounding areas on Tuesday just before 5 p.m., collapsing buildings and cutting water and electricity services. Literally millions of people have been affected.
Today, we’re asking that you contribute to relief efforts. A donation to Partners in Health and/or Concern Worldwide will provide emergency medical care, food, shelter, medicine, blankets and clean drinking water to those suffering from the destruction.
