As you have seen in the news, in the early morning hours of the 14th of August 2021 a destructive 7.2 magnitude earthquake hit southern Haiti. Over 1200 lives have been lost and we fear the number will continue rising. Thankfully, our Foundation Enfant Jeunesse staff and children in our care are all safe and accounted for. Our buildings that house our children, medical clinic, offices and school are all fine so we are in a good position to assist the survivors in this crisis.
Currently, we are working on assessing specific needs, but a state of emergency has already been declared in the country and we are preparing to provide whatever assistance needed.
As we find out more, we will keep you updated about how you can help. In the mean time please keep the survivors of the earthquake in your thoughts and prayers.
