Haitian Earthquake

The United Church has and will respond to the needs of the Haitian people as
a result of the devastating earthquake in Port au Prince this week.
The United Church of Canada (UCC) has made an immediate gift of $20,000 to
the ACT Network, Action by Churches Together, for relief efforts in Haiti.
ACT (the network of churches and Christian Aid agencies that enables global
responses to emergencies) is already in place in Haiti, assisting those
affected by the earthquake. The ACT Secretariat in Geneva is coordinating
the relief operations of its members.

UCC has also established a special United Church appeal. Donations may be
sent to:

Haitian Earthquake Response
The United Church of Canada
Financial Services Unit
300 - 3250 Bloor Street West
Toronto ON M8X 2Y4

For more information, including how to make an online donation, check the

Please add the Haitian people, world leaders, and all aid workers to your prayers.
