Quakes rock Indonesia: Food, water, shelter desperately needed

It had been hours when they pulled her out . . .

Rescuers and survivors clawed at the rubble. Sometimes with shovels, sometimes with their bare hands. Schools are supposed to provide shelter when disaster strikes
. . . not come crashing down on helpless children.

After two powerful earthquakes, Pandang, Indonesia is a city of rubble. In the next hours and days it will only get worse. Food, water, medical supplies and other essentials are running out.

Campus Crusade for Christ is responding through their humanitarian relief arm, Global Aid Network, who is working with partners on the ground.


Nisrina was taking an English exam when the floor started rolling . . .


Yours in Christ,

P.S. Immediate action is required. If vital aid doesn't arrive within two weeks, deaths among survivors will exceed those killed in the actual earthquakes.
