Following a devastating earthquake, Haiti is suffering. At the most recent count, as reported by the BBC, at least 1,941 people have died, 10,000 are injured, tens of thousands have lost their homes, and an unknown number of people remain missing. Disaster relief efforts were disrupted by a tropical storm that brought further devastation to Haiti, and a month-long state of emergency has been declared.
Below we’ve assembled some ways you can help those affected via your donations and support of the following organizations that are on the ground in Haiti, and focused on the immediate needs of the injured and displaced: Medical care, emergency shelter construction, and supplying medication, food, clean water, and basic living needs. Many of the organizations we highlighted have made a long-term commitment to assisting Haiti as well.
Hope for Haiti is a non-profit organization that has been assisting Haiti with disaster relief for over three decades.
