I have been reading about the terrible earthquake that struck Haiti, just outside the capital city of Port-au-Prince. Estimates are now of more than 100,000 people killed by this earthquake with a magnitude of 7.
I don't know about you, but I think that this is close to the last place that needs such a tragedy. The people of Haiti struggle enough already.
I visited there many years ago and it is a beautiful country, but very poor and in need of resources and help from others. With their government, it will be difficult to overcome a blow like this and I wish I could go there and help them.
If you are able, consider making a donation to Worldvision at this link: http://www.worldvision.org/ or through another charity of your choice.

I went Haiti in late 2007 and yes, they are poor and in need of help but hope is rising there too. It's encouraging to see and here how others have and are still helping them.
