Presbyterian Disaster Assistance has been closely following the recent
spate of
hurricanes that have destroyed parts of the Caribbean and
the U.S. Gulf Coast. A coordinated response with our
mission partners and our ecumenical partners is underway
for Haiti and Cuba, both of which have been hit by multiple
storms including Hurricane Ike.

Reports on the response will be updated on the PDA Web
site. Currently available are the following:
