Urgent request to help Haiti
The catastrophic earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12 has resulted in unfathomable chaos and devastation for hundreds of thousands of children and families. I’m a big supporter of Compassion International. They serve more than 65,000 children in Haiti. At least a third of them live in the areas that were hardest hit.
I am asking you to please send a generous gift today to help precious children and their families, and to encourage others to give toward the rebuilding efforts in Haiti.
The people of Haiti desperately need our help and hope. Compassion International is working rapidly to assess the situation and determine the full extent of damage:
- Sadly, many deaths are anticipated.
- Thousands of children and families will have lost everything.
- Many of Compassion’s church-based child development centers will have been destroyed.
Without a doubt, the children served in Haiti are in shock and face immediate needs for food, water, medical care, shelter and counseling. Teams are prepared to respond, and Compassion is deeply committed to helping each child. Please reach out in the name of Jesus to bring relief, comfort, love and restoration to precious children and families whose lives have been devastated by this crisis.
Whether you donate to Compassion or another reputable organization, I simply ask that you give. If you do give through Compassion for Haiti relief, here’s what your money can do:
- $35 helps provide a relief pack filled with enough food and water to sustain a family for one week.
- $70 gift helps care for their needs for two weeks.
- $105 helps provide relief packs filled with enough food and water to sustain two families for two weeks.
- $210 gift helps care for two families’ needs.
- $525 helps provide relief packs filled with enough food and water to sustain 10 families for two weeks.
- $1,050 gift helps care for 10 families’ needs.
- $1,500 helps rebuild a home.
- $2,100 helps supply 20 families with the basics for three weeks.
