Don’t Just Sit There

Two days ago, on January 12, a 7.0-magnitude earthquake hit outside of the capital of Haiti, causing widespread destruction to homes, hospitals, schools, government buildings, roads, and lives. Approximately 2 million people live in the capital of Haiti and the surrounding areas where the earthquake struck. The American Red Cross is now estimating that 3 million people are affected by the disaster. Current reports from Haiti tell of terrible destruction, widespread chaos, and overcrowded hospitals.

Q. What can you do?

A. Give.

Your money will provide food, shelter, and other relief supplies. I encourage to not just sit back and be a spectator.

Here are some organizations to contribute to:

  1. World Vision
  2. American Red Cross
  3. Compassion International
  4. Samaritan’s Purse

My wife and I are giving towards Samaritan’s Purse. Here is a video from the President and CEO of Samaritan’s Purse, Franklin Graham.
