Haiti Earthquake January 2010

On January 12, a severe 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti

An estimated 200,000 people have died, 250,000 are injured, and 1.5 million are left homeless.

Before the quake Haiti was already the poorest country in the Western hemisphere…

Now, after the quake, the loss is unimaginable, and the suffering incomprehensible.

But we can help Haiti pick up the pieces…
