Funds for Haiti
// February 3rd, 2010 // Youth News
This month we will be donating all of our profits from the Fuel Station to help with the crisis in Haiti. We will be donating to Habitat for Humanity as they continue helping out the people of Haiti by providing shelter for them. Here is what they are doing:
Major earthquake in January, 2010
An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.0 struck the Caribbean nation of Haiti on January 12, 2010—just 10 miles west of the capital, Port-au-Prince. Thousands of buildings and homes were destroyed, and the number of those affected is in the millions.
Habitat’s response
Habitat has begun to respond by addressing immediate relief efforts and long-term shelter solutions for low-income families.
Habitat is planning a multiphase strategy to the Haiti earthquake that includes early recovery and mid- and long-term responses.
How you can help victims of the earthquake
Habitat is not sending volunteers to Haiti at this time. However, for Habitat to respond effectively to this disaster, please donate to our Haiti earthquake work.
Keep monitoring www.Habitat.org for news and updates on our plans and activities in Haiti.
