Handicap International is an independent and impartial aid organization that responds to civil conflicts and natural disasters in distressed countries around the world. They serve people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, and assist in survivors' recovery and reintegration. Following the earthquake that devastated Haiti on January 12th, 2010, I felt I had to do something and I turned to Handicap International. Their actions have centered on the long-term assistance of the injured, amputees and paralyzed and the supply of transitional shelters.
