When a massive earthquake struck Haiti in January 2010, Americans opened their hearts and donated $488 million to the American Red Cross. Thanks to their generosity, we have helped build and operate eight hospitals and clinics, stem a deadly cholera outbreak, provide clean water and sanitation, move more than 100,000 people out of make-shift tents into safe and improved housing, and so much more. We are still in Haiti, helping Haitian families to recover and rebuild.
