Today marks the 5th Anniversary of the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on 12th January 2010. With around 3,500,000 people affected, an estimated 220,000 lives lost, and over 300,000 injured, many questioned Haiti's future.
Thanks to your support, our response has left a legacy that continues to save thousands of lives every year. Aside from supporting children with disabilities, we also help support one of the leading Maternity and Paediatric Units in North Haiti.
Thanks to the incredible support of Konbit Sante (one of our partners in Haiti) we have a unique opportunity to match fund every donation people make towards our Maternity and Paediatric work, pound for pound. That means if you donate £10, we can instantly double it to £20.
Please join with us and make a special donation to this critical work today, in memory of January 12th 2010. Your support can help keep a leading Maternity and Paediatric Unit in North Haiti open through out 2015. If you have time, please also take a moment to share our Global Giving Match Fund page with your friends and family. For many, this may be the perfect way to remember Haiti 5 years on.
