On August 14th a massive earthquake rocked Haiti, killing more than 2,200 people. The death toll is increasing daily. The quake leveled homes, leaving thousands homeless without any shelter. With more than 12,000 injured, the hospitals that weren’t destroyed in the quake are overwhelmed. The earthquake was followed by a hurricane. It was preceded by government unrest. We each can do our part to help Haiti through UMCOR.
