Time is of the essence

November 6, 2014

I wrote to you a few days ago to ask for your support for the Ebola Epidemic Relief Fund launched by UUSC and the Unitarian Universalist Association.

We must immediately raise $100,000 to meet the medical and educational needs of rural communities in Sierra Leone and Liberia — the two countries most devastated by the Ebola crisis.

Please donate today.

As health care workers struggle to contain the deadly virus in urban centers, rural communities are being excluded from lifesaving treatments and urgently needed public education to prevent further infections.

Please help us meet our $100,000 funding goal by making a generous donation right now.

In Liberia and Sierra Leone, your gift will help our partners train, support, and equip frontline health workers who will provide comprehensive care in new and struggling health centers. In both countries, your support will provide training to community engagement workers to help stop the frightening spread of Ebola by educating communities on better burial practices and ways to lessen the risk of infection. These efforts will benefit more than one million people who have nowhere else to turn.

Please help today. The sooner we can act, the more lives we will save.
