  15. Historical Reference The people of Haiti are suffering day by day even with so many people donating. Over 230,000,000 died due to the horrendous earthquake and are dying everyday due to low sanitary conditions. More than 10,000 people lost their homes and live in shelter zone such as Terrain Acra. In Terrain Acra there are sinks to make sure that people are sanitary, and they don’t spread diseases among each other. There is not much progress even after a hundred days; for example, there is a low amount of food for families, and people live on mud stairs due to overcrowding in shelters. Back
