Members of the Church interested in helping provide humanitarian relief to earthquake victims in Peru or others in need may do so by:

  • Volunteering labor hours at bishops storehouses, welfare farms, canneries or other Welfare Services projects.

  • Donating useful items to Deseret Industries.

  • Making generous fast offering contributions.

  • Donating through the "Tithing and Other Offerings" form by marking the category "Humanitarian Aid." On forms that do not have this category, write "Humanitarian Aid" in the category of "Other."

Individuals may send donations directly to Church headquarters by making checks payable to Humanitarian Service of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (write "Humanitarian Service" in the "For" category on the check) and mail to: Humanitarian Service, Floor 7, 50 East North Temple, Salt Lake City, UT 84150.
