The Church of the Brethren\u2019s Emergency Disaster Fund (EDF) has received donations totaling $102,154.54 for the church\u2019s relief work following the Haiti earthquake. The number represents the total of both online and by-mail donations received as of yesterday morning.<\/p>\n

Of the total, the online donations to Haiti earthquake relief have come to $66,167.07. So far, the church\u2019s finance staff have processed $29,527.42 of mailed-in donations, with more awaiting processing.<\/p>\n

EDF grants already given toward relief efforts following the Haiti earthquake total $55,000: a grant of $25,000 to support the Brethren response in Haiti, $25,000 for the work of Church World Service in Haiti, and $5,000 to Haitian First Church of New York–a Church of the Brethren congregation–and the New York Disaster Interfaith Services to establish a family assistance center for Haitians relocating to the US following the earthquake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
