As I’m sure you’ve all heard by now, a huge earthquake has hit Haiti’s capital Port-au-Prince, measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale. This was followed by numerous aftershocks of 5.9 and 5.5 magnitude.
Thousands are feared dead, however international aid efforts are under way. You can help by donating to the following charities:
