Operational Summary:
Oxfam is delivering water and providing sanitation facilities to earthquake survivors living in camps in Port-au-Prince; we are undertaking water treatment and delivery in other hard-hit towns, as well. We are preparing and distributing emergency shelter materials (plastic sheeting and rope), with the immediate goal of supplying them to 4,000 families (20,000 people). Our family kits, which contain soap, toothbrushes and paste, and other personal items, are now being distributed to 10,000 people. Oxfam is also carrying out cash-for-work programs that provide income in exchange for work on community projects like building latrines and preparing aid materials for distribution. We are currently reaching 90,000 people with aid.
