Haiti: More Earthquakes… January 17th, 2010
Just when it seems like nothing could get worse in Haiti, on the evening of January 17th, 2010 at 17:51 UTC and 18:19 UTC - Haiti was struck by two more earthquakes: a 4.7 magnitude quake, and a 4.6 magnitude quake.
This further exacerbates their existing problems. News coming out of Haiti in the past few hours reveals many of the buildings that were barely left standing after the initial quakes were toppled under the force of the two more recent quakes. This means the already heavy death toll with only get more grim.
The people of Haiti need your help. Please take this time tonight to give whatever you can. Even a small amount does a great deal of good. In a country where 80% of the population makes less than $2.00 a day, a $10 donation to the American Red Cross is the equivalent of donating a week’s pay.
