Ammado’s Haiti Earthquake Appeal has been set up to raise much needed funds for aid agencies active on the ground trying to relieve the suffering of those affected.
The agencies are:
The American Red Cross is sending money, supplies and staff to Haiti to support relief efforts. In addition to Red Cross staff already in Haiti, six disaster management specialists are being deployed to the disaster zone to help coordinate relief efforts. Haitian Red Cross staff worked throughout the night to rescue people still trapped in their homes and provide first aid. The priority remains to provide food, water, temporary shelter, medical services and emotional support.
Aktion Deutschland Hilft is Germany's Relief Coalition, a union of German relief organisations that provides rapid and effective aid in the case of large emergency situations abroad. The member organisations have been working in Haiti for several decades and have begun distributing relief items and food. Plans have also been made to send in medical teams from Germany.
Agenzia Italiana per la Risposta alle Emergenze onlus (AGIRE)
AGIRE, the Italian Agency for Emergency Response, brings together influential Italian non-governmental organizations, joining forces to respond quickly to major humanitarian emergencies. They have launched an emergency appeal to support the affected populations of Haiti.
Oxfam has a 100 strong-team working across Haiti – including 15 emergency specialists - and they're rushing in teams from around the region to provide emergency supplies, clean water, shelter and sanitation.
