Shortly after 5:00pm on Tuesday January 12, 2009 a devastating earthquake shook Haiti. The earthquake, with a magnitude estimated at 7.0, has left the Caribbean country in ruins with a high number of casualties expected. Please join the International Institute in providing relief to those directly affected by this natural disaster, through donating to one of these organizations.
Help Protect the Human Rights of Earthquake Survivors in Haiti
The next few weeks will be critical to Haitian survivors—especially women, children, and the elderly. We must ensure fairness and equality in the distribution of relief and prevent the weak and the frail from becoming victimized. That’s why USCRI is partnering with Haitian-run organizations to ensure that help reaches even the most vulnerable survivors and to promote human rights monitoring. We need you to be an advocate for those who have lost everything. Please donate today to protect human rights in Haiti.
