	Earthquake Strikes Chile Another earthquake rocked Latin America early Saturday morning February 27th; this time, a massive 8.8 magnitude focused near Concepcion, Chile. The quake ripped through Santiago and various central and southern coastal cities. Partners has made contact with volunteers and Youth Ambassadors to find out what they need. We will continue to monitor the situation and provide further information on what you can do to help. Just as the people of Haiti remain in our hearts and thoughts, so do the people of Chile, and we will continue to seek ways to offer our support and solidarity. Follow our website updates and visit www.state.gov for more information.
