Haiti Earthquake Relief One-Year Report

Date: 07 Jan 2011

The global Red Cross network is helping hundreds of thousands of Haitians recover from the January
earthquake in the largest single-country response in its history. By the one-year anniversary of the
earthquake, the American Red Cross expects to have spent and signed agreements to spend $245
million to meet the most pressing needs of earthquake survivors.

Because of the generosity of our donors, Haitians are receiving immediate relief and longer-term support
and training to help them recover and rebuild. And in coming years the American Red Cross will continue
to responsibly invest the money entrusted to us by the American people into essential programs and
projects until every donated dollar is spent.

The global Red Cross network is providing:

 Transitional homes for 150,000 people

 Cash grants and microloans to help more than 220,000 people with basic needs and to invest in
small businesses
 Clean drinking water for 317,000 people each day
