A magnitude 7.8 earthquake has claimed 654 lives on Ecuador’s northern coast.  Aftershocks continue to rock the region as rescue work continues.  The largest quake since 1987 has flattened homes, broken infrastructure and left thousands of people homeless. People need food, water, shelter, non-food items and psycho social support.  Please give local people the means to help.

ACT Alliance is distributing food, water, sanitation, non-food items and community based psychosocial support to 6,000 families in 2 provinces.  Your gift will mean they can help more people.
