FOUR WAYS TO HELP FOOD FOR THE HUNGRY BRING RELIEF TO HAITIANS IN NEED
Posted January 14, 2010

A magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck off the coast of Haiti January 12. Thousands are feared dead and countless buildings have collapsed in what geologists describe as the strongest earthquake to hit the region in more than two centuries.

The massive Haiti earthquake that struck on January 12 is feared to have killed more than 100,000 and Haitian officials have stated that it is possibly much higher. Most of the damage was in the heavily populated capital of Porta-au-Prince.

Communication lines are down, but reports are slowly streaming in. Bloodstained bodies are piled in the streets. The Parliament has collapsed, the presidential palace is in ruins, and hospitals, schools and orphanages have been completely demolished.
