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. Five years on and we remain more committed than ever to support Haiti's efforts in giving women and children the critical care they deserve.
Thanks to the incredible support of Konbit Sante (one of our partners in Haiti) we have a unique opportunity with Global Giving to match fund every donation you make towards this work 100%. That means if you donate £10, we can instantly double it to £20.
Please join with us and make a donation to this critical work today. Your support will 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:
