There was a terrible earthquake in Haiti with a Richter Scale of 7.0 which destroyed lots of buildings. At first, Haitians were despaired, but now, things are getting better because of Temporary Protected Status (TPS). TPS helps countries that are destroyed badly because of arm conflict, environmental disaster or any other kinds. TPS is running by United States and United Nations supported foods, water and medical help to Haitian just in time. There were tons of people waiting for their food and injured people went to Miami for health care. Also, Venezuela's government sent a military plane with canned foods, medicine and drinking water and provided 50 rescue workers. For Haitians who worked in America and were supposed to go back to Haiti, Obama gave a permission to stay in America until Haiti recovers.I never knew that America was helping Haitians this much and I wish Haiti recovers soon and no earthquake again.

Yes, the TPS status is very helpful for getting aid in and distributed quickly. It makes me feel good to see Americans helping out a neighbor in need.
