8.8 magnitude earthquake strikes Chile. Your donations are needed!
A deadly 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck central Chile in the early morning hours of February 27, collapsing buildings, shattering major bridges and highways across a long swath of the country. The quake was centered roughly 200 miles southwest of the capital Santiago near the country’s second largest city of Concepcion where injured people were lying in the streets or on stretchers. Many roads were destroyed, making it difficult for medical care to arrive. Tsunami warnings were issued along the entire Pacific basin.
The Anglican Relief and Development Fund (ARDF) is assessing the situation and working with our partners to respond with assistance to the victims.
