Haiti disaster

As I sure you know, there was a huge earthquake in Haiti a few days ago. Haiti is already one of the poorest in the world and this makes it even worst with getting help/aid to them.

I was watching Sky News soon after the earthquake and it said up to 500,000 could have died. Latest reports say it could be up to 50,000-100,000.

Aid is struggling to reach the people but I think its slowly getting there. Unfortunately with Haiti being so poor, there are communication problems. The latest is that the US is sending 10,000 troops.

If you want to help, its best to donate money through someone like the DEC or UNICEF. Unfortunately, it seemsĀ  some people are setting up fake charities – pretending to get money for Haiti. :(
