China Earthquake Relief Fund

A massive earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale struck Sichuan province in China on Monday. Because of its magnitude and closeness to the earth’s surface, the quake released so much energy that it caused enormous loss of lives and massive destruction to a number of areas. As of 5/14/08 the death toll has exceeded 12,012 people, 7,841 are missing, 26,206 people are living in temporary shelters. Only 30 children of 900 have been rescued from the collapsed high school in Dujiangyan, Sichuan. At least 20 children were buried in the collapse of a primary school in Liangping, Chongqing.
