International Aid Responding to Haiti Earthquake
Port au Prince, Haiti has been devastated by a 7.0 earthquake. Early reports indicate 3 million people are affected with heavy damage to homes, hospitals and infrastructure in the capital city. More will be known in the days to come.
Spring Lake, MI based International Aid (IA) is welcoming cash donations from our West Michigan community as an opportunity to provide assistance for relief efforts.
As it monitors the situation unfolding in Haiti, IA is collaborating with a network of established and trusted Partner organizations on the ground in Haiti assessing the immediate needs. Your cash donations will provide much needed medicines, clinics and lab-in-suitcases to Haiti relieving the trauma and suffering caused by Tuesday’s earthquake.
“International Aid is ready, as we have been in the past, to extend a helping hand in the face of global disaster to those experiencing extreme need” said Amy Hewitt, who is coordinating disaster relief at International Aid. “West Michigan has a history of being very generous with aid to Haiti and we are honored to continue being an outlet for that generosity.”
