One year after Haiti's earthquake , there still are over 1 million homeless Haitians. The earthquake killed approximately 230,000 people. Haitians struggle until now from the disastrous earthquake that took many lives of innocent people.
The situation remains very difficult in the country and many people remain extremely vulnerable even though one year has passed since the earthquake. Some areas experience health risks ,as well as other problems, such as violence due to the reason that they received less assistance than city centers and refuge camps.
The medical group spent over 104 million euros (131 million dollars) in Haiti in the last 12 months. Leading governments promised 2.1 billion dollars for Haiti in 2010, but only about 1.2 billion was dispersed. According to charities, more than 70 percent of Haitians are estimated to have living on less than 2 dollars per day. The majority of the Haitians had little access or no access to health care.
Haiti is trying to reconstruct itself and it needs our (leading governments) help so let's try our best to contribute to the reconstruction of Haiti.
i really liked your summary of this article beacause i never realized that the earthquake caused a lot of damage and a lot of people are suffering from it.
