World Vision has mobilized our global partnership and local Haitian first responders are on the ground, where more than 650,000 people are reeling after back-to-back disasters. An earthquake on August 14 was followed by a tropical storm which hampered rescue efforts.
World Vision is determined to reach 60,000 children and 180,000 adults, with essentials like water, shelter, food security, child protection and COVID-19 protection. Here in Canada, thanks to our generous supporters, we have already raised more than $750,000 in support of our life-saving efforts in Haiti. |
