This is what makes me want to help them.Haiti occupies the western third of the island of Hispaniola, between the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, which it shares with the Dominican Republic. Haiti has an area of 10,714 square miles, slightly smaller than Maryland. Its capital and largest city, Port-au-Prince, is in a bay on the country's southwestern coast. Haiti's population was estimated at 6,867,995 in July 2000. The country's demographic statistics reveal the effect of extreme poverty and an HIV/AIDS epidemic. These conditions have reduced life expectancy to 49.2 years, contributed to high infant mortality and general death rates, and slowed population growth. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake that triggered disastrous destruction and mounting death tolls in Haiti this week. Nearly up to two hundred thousand deaths so far. This made January 12, 2010 one of the worst earthquakes ever. This earthquake killed hundred of thousands of people. It has destroyed there country, but most of all there life's. The orphans have been sent to America so we can raise little Haitian babies. We are sending water, troops, doctors, and firefighters. To help them in any way we can. China sent help before us to help out. There are many organizations that are helping out with the earthquake such as the red cross, NBA, and the NFL. Some are sending money, but some are sending help
