Earthquake
Earthquake Relief Summary
Following the 7.0 earthquake on January 12, 2010, thousands of aid organization
s flooded into the Haitian capital city of Port-au-Prince. Three days after the disaster, SOIL followed suit as we packed up our little truck with supplies and staff from Cap-Haitien and drove the 6 hours to the capital.
SOIL in Port-au-Prince
Following the earthquake, SOIL has extended operations to Port-au-Prince and begun a new project with OXFAM GB to pilot ecological sanitation in emergency settings. This project will accomplish the construction and installation of 150 toilets in small IDP (internally displaced persons) camps throughout the city, the establishment of a compost facility in Port-au-Prince, and the training of 100 masons to build urine diversion (UD) toilets.

Apologies if these upcoming posts seem unpolished…that is because they are…we barely have time to write and internet is patchy so I will do what I can to get out information but I don’t promise eloquence.
Love to you all and know that we are safe and taking precautions.
