Help Earthquake Survivors in Haiti
Tuesday, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake devastated much of "urban" Haiti. Much of the infrastructure in this already poor country has been destroyed. Obviously, the people of Haiti need our prayers. But they also need us to step up and meet needs that they cannot even assess right now. Here's what you can do to help... The American Red Cross has now increased its initial aid pledge for Haiti from $200,000 to $1 million.
