As you all have heard a massive, 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti near the capital of Port-au-Prince on Tuesday, January 12th. The damage to buildings is extensive and the number of injured or dead is estimated to be in the hundreds, even thousands.

We want to help! My youth group GP (God's Property) is partnering with World Vision to do the 30 Hour Famine. We have done the Famine over the past six or seven years. The kids, and the leaders go without food for 30 hours to raise funds to help the 25,000 childeren who die everyday from starvation and water polluted diseases. Good news is that the number has gone down from 29,000! We are making a difference!

This year we are allocating ALL of our funds to Haiti. World Vision is on the ground rushing emergency supplies to survivors of this catastrophe as you read this!

Your gift now will help distribute life-saving relief supplies – including food, clean water, blankets, and tents -- to children and families devastated by the earthquake and aftershocks in Haiti.

“We would be very concerned about a quake of this magnitude anywhere in the world, but it is especially devastating in Haiti, where people are acutely vulnerable because of poor infrastructure and extreme poverty,” said Edward Brown, World Vision’s relief director in the United States.

World Vision has worked in Haiti for 30 years and has some 800 staff in country. Please join us in praying for the children and families devastated by the earthquake in Haiti. And please send a generous gift to help them today.
