In response to the devastation caused in Türkiye and Syria by an earthquake early this morning, leading Canadian aid agencies, working together as the Humanitarian Coalition,are raising funds to rush assistance to people in need.

Richard Morgan, executive director of the Humanitarian Coalition, says, "This news is heartbreaking, but we can all do something. Our member charities are rallying together to respond, and we invite Canadians to join us."

The following are members of the Humanitarian Coalition: Action Against Hunger, Canadian Foodgrains Bank, Canadian Lutheran World Relief, CARE Canada, Doctors of the World, Humanity & Inclusion, Islamic Relief Canada, Oxfam Canada, Oxfam-Québec, Plan Canada, Save the Children Canada and World Vision Canada.
