It is one of the poorest and least developed countries in the world, Haiti in recent years has struggled with problems ranging from near-constant political upheaval, health crises, severe environmental degradation and an annual barrage of hurricanes, which killed an estimated 800 people and caused vast damage in 2008. Jan. 12, 2010, a massive earthquake struck Haiti, reducing much of its capital to rubble. With as many as 50,000 feared dead. The devastation created serious obstacles to those attempting to deliver promised foreign aid. People are donating stuff to them and they are getting shipped down to Haiti by truck or boat.
