Devastation in aftermath of earthquake in Haiti

Check our newsletters for updates and details about People in Need Partnership, staff, partners, our work, and Port-au-Prince and Haiti.
"Everyone fighting for water and gas to move loved ones. A lot of panic and they said they will be where the office was. Some partners found and others are dead." January 16, 2010
Most of our partners are living in Port-au-Prince slums - the worst hit of all areas impacted by the earthquake. As soon as possible we will report to you on the condition of each partner individually.

The mission of PINP is long-term personal development through partnership, but we are also working to provide immediate need during this crisis. Click here for details, or donate below.

“There is not enough room for us to sleep. The house is very small, and it is close to a stinky ravine. The house leaks. At night, when it is raining, we have to wake up and stand up. I eat by chance. Once a day, four times a week. If I don’t find anybody that is willing to share his or food with me, my house spends the day with no food.” Marie Cherlyne Bercy

testimonials

"Oh my god you guys...what a wonderful, wonderful organization. I previously sponsored a child in Uganda, and after 2 years of hearing nothing from the internationally known organization, I got a letter from them telling me that his family had moved, he was no longer eligible for sponsorship, and here was my new child. I literally, to this day, wonder what happened to both him and the money I sent to help." Jo-Ann
