IFRC

Andrena Geffrard, Champs de Mars camp, Port au Prince

"I have received a lot of SMS from the Red Cross. The last one I received talked about hurricane and what to do in heavy rains – like do not cross any rivers, keep the children and your family close to you. I can say that I was quite satisfied with these messages because they’ve been very helpful and useful. I hope I’ll be receiving more SMS from Red Cross, because even if I wake up one day and I have nothing to feed myself, an SMS from Red Cross will make me feel ok and give me more hope."
