Haiti Earthquake Relief

A severe earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter devastated Haiti on January 12, 2010. The death toll is estimated at 200,000, with 1.5 million people left homeless and without fresh water and food.

The Reform Jewish community has a long history of generosity when natural disasters devastate communities around the world. Your generosity at this critical time enables us to play a role in recovery efforts and bring healing and hope to those whose lives have been affected.
