> Providing homes does not equate building a brand new home. Why would people think that?
>> When land was not available for new homes, the Red Cross provided a range of housing solutions including rental subsidies, repairs and retrofitting of existing structures, fulfilling our promise to ensure tens of thousands of Haitians are back in homes
> Red Cross takes a tough stance in NOT paying off greedy government officials. Saying there was a lack of land is the same thing as saying they couldn't justify paying outrageous prices for land. Many charities have to enter environments like these knowing they are going to be inundated with scammers. And that's the kind of news they don't need, being tricked into doing business with them.
