Plan Your Giving

In the same way that you plan a family vacation, or the purchase of a new car, you can plan your charitable giving.

Planned Gifts can be made today, so that you see the benefit of your gift, or they can be a deferred, future gift, which is committed now, but made available at some point in the future.

Haiti Earthquake

Message of Gratitude from our Haiti South Site for all the Support through the Year 2009 - 2010 

ecolestpierre

July 9, 2010 - Through 2009 – 2010, you have assisted us and our children in so many ways. The pictures and captions below tell the stories of how greatly your donations and prayers have assisted us throughout the year.

 

When a person helps a child get an education God will surely reward them because each child is God's gift. Among the many children you help educate, there are many Doctors, teachers, nurses and priests in the making. Thank you for helping these children dream of a better future for themselves!

Chile Earthquake

Chalice Family Extending Support in Chile

chileearthquake1On Saturday, February 27 at 3:34 a.m. Chileans were shaken awake by a massive earthquake with a magnitude of 8.8 on the Richter Scale.  It lasted 2 minutes and 45 seconds and was followed by an immense tsunami.  For weeks afterwards aftershocks continued to threaten those that were affected by the initial quake. Confirmed deaths were 486, with thousands more injured.  Approximately 500,000 homes were severely damaged and over 2 million other homes affected by this calamity.  The epicentre was in Cobquecura, approximately 150 km from the city of Concepción.  The regions most affected were Valparaíso, Metropolitan Area of Santiago, O´higgins, Maule, Biobío y La Araucanía.  This earthquake was 31 times stronger and released 178 times more energy than the devastating earthquake in Haiti in January and the energy released was like 100,000 of the atomic bombs that fell on Hiroshima in 1945.
