The Jewish Coalition for Disaster Relief (JCDR) Haiti Earthquake Relief On January 12, 2010, Haiti was hit by a 7.0 magnitude earthquake, the most powerful to strike the Caribbean nation in 200 years. The death toll is in the hundreds of thousands; homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods have been wiped out. A coalition of 20 Jewish organizations has convened to respond to this large-scale humanitarian emergency. The coalition’s membership is engaging its wide network of international NGOs, Israeli organizations, and local agencies to provide direct relief and long-term development assistance to victims of the quake.Click here for more information on JCDR activities in Haiti.
