On Tuesday, January 12th of 2010, Haiti experienced a magnitude 7.0 earthquake that completely destroyed the nation's capital Port-Au-Prince among it's surrounding cities. With collapsed buildings and houses all around, Haitians remain homeless and without food and water. It is a state of emergency in Haiti. Death toll is 100,000 and counting. Haiti needs us.

The Youth of Haitian Baptist Church in Willingboro, NJ



Today, January 16th, 2010, the youths of Haitian Baptist Church of Willingboro, NJ raised $3,100 to send to Haiti. About 20 youths went out to different locations in the community with decorated signs and buckets collecting money while others stood in front of the church doing the same. A goal of how much they went to raise has not been established, however, they will continue to raise as much money as they can to help their people in Haiti.

Monetary donations can be made in forms of cash, check, and/or money order to Haitian Baptist Church and can be sent to 203 Sunset Road, Burlington, NJ, 08016. In the memo, please put "Earthquake Relief Fund". The donations will go to HBC's sister church in Haiti for relief in Port-au-Prince and the surrounding cities and towns.
