The Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) and the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) have launched a joint relief effort to bring aid to the impoverished island nation of Haiti in the wake of devastation wrought by the earthquake which struck the island on January 12, 2010.
Donations may also be made directly at the UUSC web site: www.uusc.org.
