Relief Efforts in Haiti
For years, Haiti has been devastated by hurricanes, flooding, political violence and a major earthquake. Already a country living in extreme poverty, the massive earthquake on January 12, 2010 has caused incalculable loss of human life and destruction to the homes and livelihoods of millions of people. United Methodists have had a long-standing relationship with Haiti through the Methodist Church of Haiti.
