Virginia Conference churches are encouraged to take a special offering
for Haiti earthquake recovery.
Donations can be sent to the Conference Treasurer’s office.
Checks should be made payable to “Virginia Conference UMC.”
Can be designated for “UMCOR Haiti Emergency Advance #418325.”
100% of all donations will be used directly for disaster recovery efforts
and humanitarian aid in Haiti.
While it will be awhile before Haiti is ready for regular
United Methodist Volunteers
in Mission (UMVIM) teams, UMCOR is already providing aid to the Haitian people.
