Major earthquake hits off coast of Haiti

CNN is reporting that a 7.0 earthquake has struck just off the Haitian capital, Port-au-Prince.

We'll keep you posted on disaster relief efforts here. In the meantime, if you would like to make a donation to support relief efforts for children in Haiti, you can do so online here.
