A 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck near Haiti's capital of Port-au-Prince Tuesday afternoon, collapsing buildings, including at least one hospital. The quake affected roughly one in three Haitians: about 3 million people. Anywhere between 30,000 and 100,000 are feared dead and even more are injured in the largest quake to strike the impoverished Caribbean nation in 200 years. Power is out, telecommunications are spotty and food and water are reportedly growing scarce.

We should be grateful for how lucky we are and try to do our part in helping as much as we can. I made my donation using mercy corps.org (using mmawarehouse.com to match my donation of $200).
Hopefully we can all help them a little.
