On January 12th an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the richter scale devastated the island nation of Haiti leaving upwards of 50,000 dead and millions more injured or homeless.

We are accepting donations in the office to support earthquake relief work done by organizations that already have a presence on the ground in Haiti.

We will also be bringing a donation motion to the General Membership Meeting on the 28th of January.

You can also donate directly to these organizations by using the links below:

Partners in Health
Doctors Without Border/Médecins Sans Frontières
Haiti Action
Grassroots International
Oxfam
