Earthquake Relief: Turkey and Syrian Refugees

Our hearts break for the people of Turkey and Northern Syria piecing their lives together after Monday’s devastating tragedy. A 7.8 magnitude earthquake and 7.5 magnitude aftershock have claimed the lives of over 28,000 people and injured tens of thousands more, according to the Associated Press. That death toll is expected to continue to rise. With the damage spread over dozens of cities, according to the New York Times, rescue workers have faced significant challenges in their race to save survivors. The rubble mountains of concrete and metal have been dangerous to navigate.
