On February 27th 2010 an earthquake measuring 8.8M on the magnitude scale lasting three minutes, being one of the strongest earthquakes the world has seen it has caused the country to be in desperate need for aid during this terrible situation. With the death toll potentially reaching over a thousand it is essential to provide as much help as quickly as possible and this can be done through donations such as the ones provided at the top of the page.
It hit the coast just north of Concepcion and the after effects were felt all throughout neighbouring countries even as far as Buenos Aires; this highlights the damage that will have been done near to the point of impact.
Chile is no stranger to these natural disasters, in 1960 they experienced the world's strongest earthquake, which reached 9.5m. The public services are under extreme pressure with a majority of healthcare facilities in ruins, it makes recovery a exceedingly difficult task that needs to be addressed straight away.
