A 7.3 magnitude quake rocked Haiti on Tuesday causing widespread devastation to the island and in the capital, Port-au-Prince. An eyewitness at the scene reported that the city was “gray with dust.”

World Relief is responding immediately: Donate now to help the most vulnerable – families and children – in the immediate aftermath. Emergency kits will be distributed that will include items such as ready-to-eat food, water and a blanket. Time is critical. Please respond with any amount you are able to give.

World Relief works alongside local churches, delivering vital aid in the name of Jesus.

The Silent Earthquake

For more than the past decade, Haiti has suffered from the ravages of a silent earthquake – the aftershocks of widespread poverty.

Most of Haiti’s population lives on less than $2 a day. To ward off hunger pains, Haitians have been known to eat mud cakes.

For the many Haitians already living on the margin, when a natural disaster like yesterday’s earthquake strikes, the effect is exponential.

We are grateful for your gifts. Please designate donations to “Haiti Earthquake”.
