More than 2 million people in Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince, and many more throughout the country are in desperate need of water, food, shelter and medical care following the catastrophic earthquake Jan. 12.
You can give to help Southern Baptist relief efforts there.
If you would rather give by check or money order, make it payable to IMB and reference the Haiti Response Fund in the memo section.
