I cannot even begin to comprehend this level of devastation but know that there must be something I can do. I have donated to our local Red Cross and Worldvision and encourage all our readers and visitors to do the same with the charity of your choice. Set your bullshit meters on high and look for only reputable charities as sadly, the bottom feeders always come out to take advantage of our desire to help

Our prayers are with the affected people and their families.

The powerful Haitian earthquake has destroyed most of the capital city of Port-au-Prince, Haitian authorities said Wednesday. About 3 million people -- one-third of Haiti's population -- were affected by the quake, the Red Cross estimated.

A top envoy called it a "major catastrophe."

Haiti's first lady, Elisabeth Debrosse Delatour, reported that "most of Port-au-Prince is destroyed" and that many government buildings had collapsed, Haiti's ambassador to the United States, Raymond Joseph, told CNN Wednesday morning. Delatour said President Rene Preval was all right, Joseph reported.
