We have email reports from Haitians known to us in both St. Marc and Jacmel that speak of the devastation first hand.

First Hand Email Report

"i've never been so overwhelmed in my life. so much has collapsed. so many things are absolutely crushed. there's dead people all through the streets, some covered with sheets and some not covered. buildings that i would pass by every day, or even go to, are gone. our biggest grocery store Caribbean market is completely gone. it's unbelievable. People were trapped inside. And i've never been to that store without knowing at least one person there. i'm sure someone was inside that i know. there's TONS of people in the streets. so many people crowding, it was hard to walk through the streets. there's also a lot of people just sitting in the middle of off-streets. nowhere for them to go. another tremor just hit. the ground definitely does not feel stable. we all are really starting feel overwhelmed by what's going on. walking out in the streets was the hardest thing i've ever done in my life just because of everything i saw. the people aren't hungry yet, but once time goes on, looting could start up. hopefully all of the aid coming in will cancel that out. thanks for all your prayers =)"


This devastating quake caused the collapse of many buildings and the country's prime minister, Renee Preval, estimates that as many as 100,000 are feared dead.

Strongest Quake Since 1770

This is the strongest earthquake to hit the area since 1770. The capital city of over 2 million people, Port-au-Prince, is only 10km away from where the quake struck. It has been reported that the capital has been seriously damaged with the destruction of government buildings, schools, and hospitals.

Poorest Nation

Haiti, located on the island of Hispaniola, is one of the poorest nations in the world. The country will be ill equiped to handle immediate emergency relief efforts to locate people trapped in the rubble, to provide food and water for the many who are displaced, and to clean up debris on the roads hindering the transport of outside relief teams and supplies to the affected areas.
