BHM has already begun moving into the next stages of relief for the survivors of Haiti's devastating earthquake. For more than 60 years, we've worked to establish strong partnerships with local pastors and leaders throughout the island nation, ensuring that we work with godly, compassionate people who understand the needs of their communities. The pastors understand better than anyone the people in their communities and they are able to distribute food and supplies in an orderly, humane manner.

So when it came time to begin distributing food to rural villages, we wasted no time in getting up and running. Today, we reached out to Bolosse and the surrounding areas of Fermathe, BHM's headquarters.

Pastor Soimeus from the Fermathe church organized the local food distribution. He and several other members of the church gave food to approximately 100 families who went in one by one to  receive their bags of food.

The numbers we're hearing about casualties from the 7.0 earthquake and countless aftershocks that rocked Haiti are growing by the day. With estimates ranging between 100,000 and 200,000 Haitians dead from the quake, many of them children, each report seems worse than the last.

Here are two life-saving numbers you haven't heard about the Haiti earthquake: 1 child. Less than $1 a day. It really is that simple.
