An earthquake on the scale of 7.3 hit Haiti followed by another two which have left a trail of destruction, devastation and a desperate call for your help. 

Working together with the Red Cross, we are asking you to help Haiti and its people regain some sort of stability as soon as possible. With a huge call out for medical services, food and water, every penny counts. 

If you feel you can donate in any way, then please head down to Bournville’s Student Union (room BG19) or you can do it yourself online at http://www.redcross.org.uk/emergencysite/default.aspx?id=88916. Please make sure it is a safe and trusted website if you are donating online.  

Remember, with your help, the people of Haiti can regain some sort of stability much sooner. If you have any ideas as to how else we can help then please reply to this blog with your ideas.  

At Bournville, the impact that this earthquake has had is felt among the students and staff and we want to work as hard as possible to make sure that the victims of the earthquake have a better chance at survival, and the opportunity to move on with their lives.
