Haiti earthquake: Oxfam responds

Oxfam is responding to the biggest earthquake for 200 years in Haiti. We've flown in more than 60 tons of emergency supplies and equipment, including clean water, buckets, water treatment kits, shelters and sanitation tools – allowing us to help more and more people each day.

We have reached 85,000 people across seven sites and are working to expand that to 110,000. With water trucks arriving daily now, our focus now is on preventing the spread of waterborne disease. We're expanding cash-for-work programs across nine sites where Oxfam has recently installed clean water and latrines.  We still need your support to ensure aid reaches 3 million people in desperate need.
