Haiti Donations Needed! PLease Help!!

URGENT PLEASE READ!!! Warning Graphic Content...

My heart has been broken by the complete devastation that happened Tuesday in the nation of Haiti . Officials say the death toll could be over the one million mark. This letter is a call to action....

Destiny Village , is an orphanage in Haiti that was established by The Potter's House Church of God in Columbus , Ohio over ten years ago. There are currently 30 children that reside there. I have personally made multiple trips in the past couple of years for humanitarian effort and aid to Destiny Village and the surrounding villages. What I thought were terrible living conditions then, can in no way compare to the devastation that happened two day ago.

The damage in Haiti is catastrophic and there is not enough food and water to go around, nor are there enough medical supplies to treat the wounded. Dead bodies are literally piled up in the streets and the nation is in a state of chaos and panic. The good news is we have a team already on the ground that was there on a mission's trip when the earthquake occurred and they are all fine, working hard to help as many people as possible.

The team at Destiny Village is trying to help everyone they can, they have received children with broken bones, severe cuts and even some with body parts that have been crushed or completely severed by this horrific earthquake.

The immediate need is funds to get as much water, food and medical supplies on the ground as soon as humanly possible. The Potter's House has already spent tens of thousands of dollars in this effort and immediately sent what they could the day of the quake. Another team is leaving Monday to take as many supplies as possible and that's where you can help. Some of you can give $10, some $100, others can give $1,000 or some even more, but whatever you give, please know the need is great and if everyone pitches in, we will see a miracle! Checks can be made payable to Crossroads Church of God. Attached below is the web address for Destiny Village .
