On the 12th of January 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake rocked the city of Port-au-Prince. One of the worse ever disasters in the western hemisphere leaves the Haitian capital in ruins. The death toll is estimated to be between 100 000 to 200 000. More than 600 000 people have been left homeless. Half the population of Haiti consists of youths aged 20 years and younger. Relief workers are working around the clock tirelessly but are still struggling to get aid to Haitians in need. There remains a shortage of medical supplies flowing into the affected areas. This is an emergency appeal to the compassion of your hearts to give to our brothers and sisters in Haiti. They need medical supplies, food, shelter, clean drinking water and rebuilding funds. The organisations we are going through will be either Compassion Australia (http://www.compassion.com.au/cmspage.php?intid=346&linkid=229)
Or Unicef International
(http://www.supportunicef.org/site/pp.asp?c=9fLEJSOALpE&b=1023561)
For donation and aid enquiries contact me at:
Gerald Liew 0421156712
or at cell this Friday, or at service on Sunday.
Thank you, and do keep the people of Haiti in prayer.
