Probe Reveals Red Cross Raised $500M for Haiti but Built Only 6 Homes / Sputnik International



For the record we ,as the KOC council worked on this needed relief project to help Haitians. our projects  did not materialize because the "professional agencies such as the  Red Cross was in charge."   There is a lesson here when you follow up on the actual results . The question becomes how do we do good for and with our order in the future ? Food for thought ?



"After raising nearly half a billion dollars for emergency disaster relief after the 2010 Haitian earthquake - including $170 million earmarked for 'shelter relief' - the American Red Cross has built a grand total of six houses, according to a new report."

The American Red Cross claims to have provided homes to 130,000 Haitians crumble under scrutiny, as that number includes people trained in proper construction techniques, those in temporary shelters, or people who received rental assistance, according to a Propublica/NPR report.
