EDV's English programme is just one of 19 projects which have directly affected more than 3,000 earthquake survivors in Port au Prince

Why your donation matters

When you donate to EDV, you donate to community led disaster recovery projects which do much more than provide hand-outs. EDV's aim is to address the underlying weaknesses which prevent communities from recovering on their own.

Our projects range from education to health care to construction, but they all have one thing in common: they help survivors help themselves.

You can help disaster affected communities around the world build a better tomorrow by donating today.

Case study: donations in action

Diana is 13 years old, and she has been living at the Foyer d’Orelph Orphanage with her sister and brother since the earthquake. She doesn’t talk much about her parents, and we aren’t sure what happened to them.

As one of the older girls living in the orphanage she helps the younger kids when it’s time for them to take baths. She also braids their hair.

Diana says that if she could visit any place it would be the United States, in hopes that she could learn to speak English fluently. Her favourite color is pink and she likes studying math in school. When she grows up, she would like to be a nurse so she can help people.

Earthquake affected children like Diana still need your help so they can stay in school and learn the skills they'll need to break the cycle of poverty. Please donate today

Diana lost everything in the earthquake. Today, she's living securely and back in school, thanks to donors like you.
