Penny Appeal has launched an appeal to support emergency relief operations after a massive 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck the Caribbean nation of Haiti.

The quake - Haiti's worst in two centuries - struck about 15km (10 miles) south-west of Port-au-Prince, at 1653 (2153 GMT) on Tuesday and was quickly followed by two strong aftershocks of 5.9 and 5.5 magnitude.

The full extent of the devastation is still unclear but it has affected over 3 million people and there are fears thousands of people have died. Haiti is already the poorest country in the Americas, ranking lower than Kenya or Bangladesh on the UN’s human development index. Most people in Port-au-Prince live in flimsy slum housing, so an earthquake of this magnitude is catastrophic. The quake has also destroyed the presidential palace, UN HQ and other strategic buildings.

Please help the people of Haiti by donating to our Haiti earthquake appeal.
