CHILDREN ARE DYING OF MALNUTRITION. ”their already meager food supply cut by a series of devastating storms that destroyed crops, wiped out livestock and sent food prices spiraling” THESE PEOPLE DONT HAVE THE FUNDS TO BUY FOOD FOR THEMSELFS. AS THEY SAY TO GET TO HAITI THEY EITHER WALK OR GET ON A DONKEY. I JUST CANT BELIEVE HOW LITTLE KIDS LIKE THAT ARE SUFFERING FOR THIS MALNUTRITION. THESE KIDS ARE emaciated. THERES MORE THAN 25 CHILDREN THAT DIED.

THIS INVOLVES THE UN. I ALSO READ IN THIS ARTICLE THAT A PROGRAM FROM THE U.S HELPED THEM WITH MORE THAN 30 TONS OF FOOD AID. ENOUGH FOR 2 WEEKS OF SUPPLY FOR MORE THAN 5,800 PEOPLE. I JUST THINK THIS IS NOT ENOUGH THOUGH. THERES MORE THAN 5,800 CHILDREN IN HAITI. WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING TO HELP THIS CHILDREN. I JUST DONT THINK THIS IS RIGHT. THE CHILDREN ARE OUR FUTURE. AND BY ME SEEING THIS IS DEVESTATING.
