Haiti Earthquake: ADRA's Response in Pictures


21st January 2010






In the early stages of the disaster, ADRA personnel conducted assessments
and dialogue with other agencies to determine the most effective strategies.




ADRA is partnering with Global Medic, Johanniter International and others
to provide much-needed medical assistance and clean water supplies.




 ADRA has already distributed approximately 30 boxes of medical supplies and
provided medical assistance to the injured at the Adventist Hospital of Haiti.
