Help for Haiti: SESA’s Streamlined Effort

Help for Haiti: SESA’s Streamlined Effort

After hearing the tragic news about the 7.1 magnitude earthquake that was reported from Haiti on the island of Hispaniola, Nancy Nagarkar, executive director at SESA, knowing that I had lived in the Dominican Republic (DR) for over two years, inquired about the safety of my Dominican friends there. I had only heard that they were not directly affected by quake damage. Five days later, I received an email from a missionary reporting that hundreds of thousands of lives had been lost. He told me that my dearest friends in the DR wanted to contact me. They knew I was in Alaska, but truthfully thought it was not part of the United States and did not quite know how to contact me.
