Published purpose
On January 12, 2010, a massive earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale rocked Port-au-Prince, the capital of the impoverished Caribbean nation of Haiti. It is estimated that up to 3,000,000 people have been affected by the disaster, either through injury or through loss of access to life-sustaining necessities such as food, water, sanitation services, and shelter. With CIDA support, Oxfam-Québec is helping to meet the emergency needs of an estimated 8,000 families affected by the earthquake, through the provision of basic water and sanitation services, shelter, and non-food items (such as blankets and mosquito nets).
