HURRICAN CRISIS IN HAITI

YES I WANT TO HELP

AT RISK CHILDREN FOUNDATION IS RESPONDING TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN NEED.

Life in Haiti was dire before Hurricane Matthew hit. It is the worst storm to hit Haiti since 1964. 40 inches of rain fall in Les Cayes, which produce massive flooding and mud slides in Custine. Most of the population there live in structures unable to withstand the storm. The situation became exponentially worse, they lost all of their possessions.

At Risk Children works with the most vulnerable families in Custine, and desperately needs your help to preserve families and protect children.

Our immediate need is one of food, shelter, clothing, and physical safety for children and families who have lost everything. ARCF’s staff and social workers can provide direct assistance to vulnerable families devastated by the storm.
Please help ARCF keep families together in their time of need.
