We are ready to respond.
Save the Children has offices in Camp Perrin and Les Cayes and plans to respond. We have health clinics (pictured), nutrition, education, and child protection programmes in Haiti. Our emergency response teams are assessing the situation.
Leila Bourahla, Save the Children’s Haiti country director said:
“Staff in the region are seeing horrific devastation—dozens of collapsed houses, numerous injured people and fatalities… it is clear that this is a massive humanitarian emergency. We must respond quickly and decisively. Children are always the worst affected and I am very concerned about their immediate safety.”
