Haiti Relief

Tuesday, a disaster struck the capital of Haiti and surrounding areas where 3 million people live. We've been in touch with Red Cross staff on the ground, who report collapsing buildings and aftershocks that have forced terrified people into the streets. The people of Haiti need our help.

Today the American Red Cross increased our initial pledge from $200,000 in relief services to $10 million - to provide food, water and other relief to people impacted by this earthquake.

Please make a donation now to the International Response Fund to help victims of countless crises like the earthquake in Haiti.

Your gift will provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need.

We must be prepared to take further action as local responders assess the situation. Red Cross volunteers will continue to work through the day to reach survivors trapped in their homes. Based on the needs we have found, the American Red Cross will provide additional support, including relief supplies from our global warehouses.

Your donation of any size could help save the day by providing food, water, temporary shelter, medical services and emotional support to someone in need.

Help provide hope amidst destruction and give the gift that saves the day! Click here to donate. Contact Deborah Neary (31) at 343-7714 with questions.
