Information for sponsors of children in Haiti
We value your commitment to sponsoring a child in Haiti.
Our staff on the ground report that no World Vision projects were directly affected in the earthquake. While tremors may have been felt in these areas, there has been no loss of life or damage to infrastructure.
While no sponsored children have been physically affected by the earthquake, many people in these communities may have lost family members who lived or worked in Port-au-Prince. As a result, there may be emotional implications for the family and loss of income for the communities.
World Vision staff continue to monitor the safety and wellbeing of all sponsored children and their families. Please be assured that if we receive information of concern regarding any sponsored children we will contact sponsors immediately.
