Ida devastates the North East
We are saddened by the deaths of many people in this deadly storm. Many families are now displaced and those who are lucky to have survived are left to begin the clean-up. Gov. Hochul has declared a state of emergency for New Yorkers affected by the storm. ECC will be helping some neighbors with clean-up.
Afghanistan
As we continue to pray and help Haiti, we also remember the people of Afghanistan who are fighting for their lives as the United States withdrawals after twenty years. We hope for a great outcome.
On January 12, 2010, Haiti suffered a 7.0 magnitude earthquake, today Haiti has not repaired homes that were damaged, including the white house. On August 16, 2021Haiti suffered another devastating 7.2 magnitude earthquake. Over two thousand people have perished and over three hundred are missing. ECC along with our partner Organization HAFALI are on the ground in Haiti. We have access to the needs of the four cities we have adopted to help.
ECC partners in Haiti, HEI, with 98 percent of their staff and doctors are Haitians. They have already taken care of so many of the injured in their hospital.
