THE PLAN FOR HAITI
They survived the quake.
We’re helping them survive what comes after.
ALISON WRIGHT
In the months following the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that devastated
Haiti’s capital on January 12, 2010, Direct Relief has delivered 55 shipments
of emergency medical assistance worth $38.5 million to more than 40 Haitian
healthcare providers. Having worked in Haiti since 1964, Direct Relief had
strong relationships with the country’s largest hospitals and clinics, allowing
us to rapidly deploy resources where they were needed most.
Backed by the massive generosity of private and corporate supporters,
Direct Relief has put together the most comprehensive emergency response
in our 62-year history—more than 230 tons, or 350 pallets, of specifically
requested medicines and supplies have been expedited to caregivers in
Haiti, much of it airlifted free of charge by FedEx.
As unprecedented as the short-term response has been, Direct Relief
recognizes that the need in Haiti won’t fade with the headlines.
Here are three high-impact ways Direct
Relief is helping to make quality
healthcare viable for the long term in Haiti.

The Right Medicines and
Supplies, in the right hands
“Thank you for
helping to fill the
needs of Hospital
Albert Schweitzer.
You have saved
many, many lives
with your timely
efforts.” – John R. Walton,
Hospital Albert Schweitzer
Board Chair
ALISON WRIGHT
$38.5 million in emergency
medical assistance to 40
healthcare providers in
Haiti, including
Fifteen percent of the nine million people who live
in Haiti were displaced by the quake and forced to
live in some sort of makeshift shelter. This population
is extremely vulnerable to the most basic health concerns related to
hygiene and compromised water and sanitation systems. Direct Relief
will continue to support the material needs of healthcare providers and
help strengthen their ability to stave off epidemics.
Immediately following the earthquake, Direct Relief ’s partner
facilities were overwhelmed with hundreds of patients, volunteers,
and unsolicited donations. Direct Relief established an in-country
warehouse to help work around the logistical bottlenecks that would
have otherwise choked the distribution of aid to those healthcare
providers who needed medicines and supplies as quickly as possible.
The warehouse allows Direct Relief staff on the ground in Haiti
to manage our assistance and control the supply chain, taking the
logistical burden off the healthcare facilities, and allowing them to
focus on patient care—not trucking and warehousing.
Within hours of the quake, Direct Relief was in contact with
corporate partners, matching anticipated needs with available supply.
The companies responded with the largest amount of medical product
support for an emergency that Direct Relief has received in its history.
The sheer quantity of donations received warranted the temporary
expansion of warehouse space from 50,000 to 100,000 square feet.
The total wholesale value of healthcare products received for Haiti has
eclipsed $50 million.

Mobility for the Long Run:
prosthetics and rehabilitation
ALISON WRIGHT

an amputated limb
at Saint Damien
Pediatric Hospital
in Port-au-Prince.
Traumatic injuries were widespread following the earthquake—crushed bones, spinal cord
injuries, and amputated limbs. Many of these injuries will result in life-long conditions and
most will require rehabilitation. Even if the earthquake had not decimated the healthcare
infrastructure, it would have been unable to support the immediate and long-term needs of
those affected.
Building on the success of the prosthetics and orthotics program Direct Relief created
in Pakistan following the earthquake of 2005, Direct Relief has committed $2 million to
strengthen Haiti’s physical rehabilitation capacity.
$2 MILLION TO STRENGTHEN HAITI’S
REHABILITATION CAPACITY
Partnering with local groups, Direct Relief will leverage long-standing relationships with
international experts to help establish effective and lasting prosthetic and orthotic centers
in Haiti, and see that these local organizations have the resources to train new prosthetists
and orthotists so that the new centers are adequately staffed by Haitians. This work will help
people long after the emergency of the earthquake has given way to the everyday reality of
health care in Haiti.
Mapping Assistance to Haiti
In the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake,
Direct Relief collaborated with a wide
range of organizations including Google,
the Environmental Sciences Research
Institute (ESRI), the Pan American
Health Organization (PAHO), and the
U.S. Department of State to help quickly
generate a map of Haiti’s health facility
infrastructure. In two months of work,
the Interagency Haiti Health Facility
Mapping group was able to generate
a complete geographic database of all
Haitian health facilities, enabling an
accurate damage assessment, enhanced
operational collaboration, and longterm
public health planning benefits for
Haiti’s Ministry of Health.
Direct Relief has also used ArcGIS
Server and Adobe Flex to produce an
interactive web mapping application
showing the location and value of all
Direct Relief aid shipments. By linking
specific clinical location data from the
UN to our own data, we have been able
to demonstrate an unprecedented level
of transparency in humanitarian disaster
response.
Direct Relief ’s collaborative
mapping work in Haiti will also be
featured in upcoming conferences at
the Global Health Council and the
InterAction Forum.

Earthquake Responses in
China and Chile
Emergency response presents challenges in countries
with stringent customs or importation policies.
Most recently, Direct Relief faced these challenges in
responding to the 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile and
the 6.9-magnitude earthquake in China. Thanks to strong
collaborations with healthcare providers and medical
manufacturers working in these countries, Direct Relief
was able to provide needed assistance to people injured in
the earthquakes.

Grant Fund
FOR HAITIAN NGOs AND
COMMUNITY GROUPS,
CASH GRANTS UP
TO $25,000
“In Haiti, Direct Relief has
delivered more critically
needed assistance in less
time to more groups than
ever before. The best
interests of local groups
have long been at the
heart of Direct Relief’s
work, because we know
that the best interest of the
community are at the heart
of these groups’ work.”
– Brett Williams, Direct Relief Director of
Emergency Preparedness and Response
International aid groups have received over
$2 billion in donations for Haiti, yet many
smaller Hatian groups still struggle to access
funding.
Direct Relief has committed $500,000
for a Community Grant Fund that will give
local Haitian NGOs and community groups
access to cash grants up to $25,000. These
grants will ensure that local groups that were
operating before the earthquake and have
the most at stake in the country’s recovery
aren’t overlooked.

The Qinghai earthquake damaged tens of
thousands of buildings in a mountainous region
of China. Following news of the quake, Direct Relief
program staff contacted
our partners incountry:
One HEART
and the Amitabha
Foundation, which
we have supported
with aid and cash
grants, as well as Mercy Relief, an emergency response
and medical aid organization based in Singapore. Direct
Relief committed up to $100,000 for earthquake recovery
efforts, with initial grants issued to support medical
mission trips by these three groups to the affected area,
including Yushu.
With the Amitabha Foundation, Direct Relief plans
to help rebuild and equip the village clinic and Yushu
Hospital, both at the epicenter of the earthquake. In 2008,
Direct Relief supplied Amitabha with a full surgical suite
to increase access to quality care. With One HEART,
Direct Relief hopes to help rebuild and bring more
advanced maternal and child health care to the affected
region, including a birthing center in the local hospital.
In Chile, Direct Relief provided $277,000 in
medical material assistance and personal
care supplies to FEDES, which distributed aid on
medical outreach
trips to coastal
villages destroyed
in the earthquake.
The Chilean army,
along with the
Ministry of Health,
set up temporary field hospitals outside damaged
facilities so patients could receive both emergency
and ongoing medical care, and FEDES helped supply
them with critically needed medical products. For
the thousands of people left homeless, personal care
products like shampoo and soap were greatly appreciated
as they provided a bit of comfort despite the difficult
circumstances.
Covidien is supporting Direct Relief ’s efforts
in Chile with a direct donation of pharmaceuticals,
including morphine, through the company’s relationship
with CENABAST Center for Supply (the central supply
agency for the National Health Service/Ministry of
Health in Chile). CENABAST is processing the
emergency medical assistance and will handle the
in-country distribution. FEDES will likely receive a
portion of this aid.
