COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Compassion and Mercy Associates (CAMA), the Alliance relief and development arm, is bringing help and hope to those devastated by the 7.0 earthquake that destroyed Port-au-Prince, Haiti’s capital, on January 12.

According to news reports, the death toll may top 100,000. The hospitals are gone, and medical supplies are desperately needed. About 3 million people—one-third of Haiti's population —were impacted by the quake.

In partnership with sister organizations already on the ground, CAMA will provide immediate assistance—including clean water, emergency shelter, medical aid, and other necessities—as well as long-term help in rebuilding efforts, integrating Jesus’ message of redemption with practical acts of compassion.
