Help Compassion Help Haiti's Earthquake Victims

Your donation goes to fund this project organized by:
Compassion International, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit

The international news is inundated with reports of a 7.3-magnitude earthquake that struck Haiti, with the epicenter located just 10 miles from the capital, Port-au-Prince.

The earthquake has produced many aftershocks, including two large ones over 5.0.

There is substantial and widespread damage to the country, and damaged communication lines and cell towers are making communication virtually impossible.

Please support our relief efforts and pray for the safety of our staff, Compassion-assisted children and families and the people of Haiti.

Also pray for the government and leadership in Haiti as they respond to this disaster.

  Sign Petition Petition: Put your name on the line to save children’s lives

Jhl

United States Fund for UNICEF Petition

Put your name on the line to save children’s lives

308,696 signatures

About this Petition:

9.2 million children under age five die every year—more than 25,000 a day; more than a thousand an hour; more than 17 per minute. They die from causes we know how to prevent and treat—pneumonia, diarrhea, and malnutrition are the biggest killers of kids. We believe that number should be zero.

From the work of UNICEF and others, we know that we can save the lives of children and mothers in even the poorest countries. We know that we can’t save child lives by just treating one or two diseases. We need to make sure that families have access to a package of basic, cheap, cost-effective health and nutrition services to ensure a healthy start to life.

Americans strongly believe in the importance of saving children and mothers. We need our Government to reflect that belief. We want the next President of the United States to launch a Presidential Initiative to Accelerate Child Survival. This Presidential Initiative would scale up the high-impact interventions that we know save child lives in even the poorest communities. With leadership from the United States Government, UNICEF calculates an additional three million children’s lives can be saved by 2012.

We won't "get to zero" if we continue business as usual. We need to step things up. And we need President Obama to take the lead!

Greetings! Causes call for the compassion of others who are able to direct their attention for nurture and support. Call upon those hearts of many who envision the potential aptitude of a significant message. Care enough to examine the need and to relinquish the irony of faults, failures, or faltering feats to gain prosperity. Embolden those participants who sacrifice for the amelioration of conditions and opportunities. God bless! For encouragement 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, join me on Facebook or learn more at http://www.kingdavis.com
