Our thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by the earthquake in Chile. We have contacted our Chilean staff, and will update you as we receive information from our project located in Valparaiso, Chile.
The Valparaiso project, the only CFCA project in Chile, is approximately 220 miles north of the epicenter. CFCA serves more than 5,000 sponsored children, youth and aging members through this project.
We ask that you join us in keeping all those affected by the earthquake in your prayers.
For more information about the earthquake in Chile, read this article from NPR.

If any news about Catalina Andrea and her family in Valparaiso, please email us. We are worried about her, and her family whom we sponsor.

Dear Geoff,
All of us at CFCA share your concern regarding the recent earthquake in Chile. At this time only limited information is available as it is also affecting the lives and families of our local staff members. They have, however, informed us there were no casualties caused by the earthquake.
Sincerely,
Ashley
