1000+ have died and thousands more have been displaced. Help Penny Appeal provide immediate relief to the victims both in Haiti and the United States.

5 reasons why it's important to provide aid to the people of Haiti

1. Hurricane Mathew has claimed over 1,000 lives and the death toll continues to rise.

2. 1.5 million have lost their homes. Thousands need essential assistance in the form of food, fresh water and shelter to help the victims rebuild their lives.

3. Haiti is still struggling to rebuild since the devastating 2010 earthquake. 6 years later, Hurricane Matthew threatens to reverse the country's development efforts.

4. Cholera Outbreak. The plague has spread rapidly, surging the death toll rapidly and introducing the disease to more than 200 people through the contaminated drinking water.

5. Widespread Famine. Essential crops and livestock have been destroyed, which may cause food scarcity and extreme inflation in the upcoming months.

What is Penny Appeal USA doing?

Penny Appeal USA is working with multiple partners on the ground situated in different regions of Haiti in order to respond to this tragic hurricane in the most effective and impactful way possible. All funds are being used to provide essential assistance in the form of food, water and shelter to help the victims rebuild their lives.

Our team has been on the ground traveling from the North East to the South West of Haiti visiting numerous communities conducting needs assessments as well as distributing supplies. Our Penny Appeal team has made multiple trips from Port-Au-Prince reloading their trucks with the necessary supplies and making the 7+ hour journey back to the West that's seen the worst of the damage.

Our team distributing food & essential provisions

The global Penny Appeal family has been responding to emergencies since 2009. We have worked to save lives during states of crisis in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Gaza, Lebanon, Turkey and Greece. Now, we're counting on your help to respond to the aftermath of Hurricane Matthew.
