We, the Board and staff of the Global Fund for Women, continue to keep our sisters and colleagues in Chile in our thoughts and prayers. The 8.8 magnitude earthquake was 35 times stronger than the recent 7.0 quake in Haiti.  The death toll is now in the hundreds; Constitucion and Conception were the hardest hit. The  destruction to homes, buildings and entire villages is, in President Michelle Bachelet’s words, “catastrophic”.
