Help Haiti

I received an email from World Food Programme and I am sharing it to you my beautiful readers.

Help Haiti Now



Haiti Earthquake Devastation Leaves Millions Hungry


I have been up since five this morning in meetings to coordinate our response to the destructive earthquake that has just hit Haiti, and I'm writing to you because you're an important part of our response. World Food Programme teams are already on the scene, mobilising emergency food assistance to families, and you can help us reach more families in need.



You see, we rely entirely on voluntary contributions, so you help determine just how many lives we can save. Every hour we wait means more lives are at risk.

Help more than two million hungry people with an emergency donation today.

You've probably seen the pictures showing the devastation wrought by the severity of this earthquake. We still don't know the full extent of the damage, but we do know that millions of people are without food.



When a disaster strikes, hunger is often the first emergency. WFP knows how to deliver food to the hungry quickly and effectively, and our teams are working non-stop to mobilise critical emergency supplies. But we need your support. You've already been generous in the past. Today you can be one of the first to respond.

Today, in this critical hour, will you give as generously as you can to meet the enormous need in Haiti?

We will help you stay updated on the latest developments. You can visit this page where we will post the latest news from the disaster zone. Thanks so much for your support, both financial and otherwise, in this tremendous moment of need.

Thank you.
