Rosie Benjamin is one of 1.3 million people in Haiti's refugee camps. There are 1,200 people crammed into 300 tents. In the refugee camps the people are on their own, the only thing they get from the government is a delivery of water every once in a while. Where did our military money go? Why aren't all of these people living safely in their own houses?! There are kids in these refugee camps that don't have the money to go to school this year. Rosie and most of the other people are living on the money sent by relatives over seas. They barely have any food at all. The government sometimes supplies bulgar wheat and vegetable oil.I don't understand how all of these people don't have houses and food, the government alone sent 100 million dollars to Haiti, that doesn't include all the separate organizations! Every kid there needs to be going to school, we take it for granted here and say we hate it but really, where would we be without it? I really really hope this gets fixed really soon! :)
