The people of Haiti need your help. We'll tell you how to get involved. And, you'll see how rescue teams from the U.S. and around the world are already making a big impact.

I swear I think I just saw my colleague, Sarla Chand, being rescued from the rubble...Sarla is with IMA World Health. Anderson called her "Carla Shond" I think - just confirming that it was our Sarla....
Is there documentation of how many orphanges and where they are in Haiti? Aid workers need to know this. There will be more children without parents...Haiti's orphanges will be an institution neccesary to the housing of these children. They need to be preserved and the children within them protected,

My most sincere thanks to Anderson, C. Lawrence, Ivan, Gary Tuchman, Dr. Gupta and all of the other reporters and those behind the scenes for the most excellent reporitng from Haiti. Thank you Team 360 in studio too.
Good night fellow bloggers and friends, Isable, David, Ind., Megan Dressler, WA, Emily and others for a most informative and excellent discussion tonight (and every night).
Hope to talk to you all tomorrow. Everybody stay safe and God bless.
Thank you, CNN, for bringing the events in Haiti to us. I have given to the Red Cross and to Doctors Without Borders. I only wish I had more to give. CNN is always there when catastrophic world events happen, and I am thankful we have you to turn to for indepth information. Anderson Cooper is back in his element, back to the field where he excels. His team is awesome. Dr. Gupta is so excellent. And I always appreciated Gary Tuchman, but he has so shined with his reporting from Haiti. He has shone most of all. All others I wish I could list. Thank you so much for professional, competent, and compassionate coverage. I am glad to be back to be a viewer of CNN. Prayer is not enough for the people of Haiti; I hope dollars come in by the millions. I will give what I am able.
Hi Anderson I was in Haiti in 2008 @ Mission of Hope in Titanyen I was wondering if any news from there and also if they could be helpful in relief since they have a clinic at the Mission and are about a half and hour from PAP. . .please keep me informed if possible
Thank you Anderson for your amazing reporting! Praying for you and your team along with the Haitian people!
Please help – BRESMA orphanage – 150 children – they are in the yard as the buildling is falling down. Their water is contaminated and the children are crying because they are thirsty.
Can anyone from CNN help?
Good night Anderson and Gary. You did another great job tonight. Take care.
There are still people under caribean market people are receiving text messages up to 5mm ago please try and send some help
Is any way they could cremate the body of the dead so no virus will spread for this emergency?
I have a feeling those credit card compaines will try to write off those waived fees as a "charitable donation" ...
Facebook is reporting that there are 63 people trapped at the Carribean Market – one of the survivors sent out a text asking for help.
Anderson,
Your reports from Haiti are very authentic. My prayers are with you. Have a restful night.
I am an adoptive parent of two haitian children whom are safe by reports but is concerned and distraught about our orphanage in the hills of PAP – HIS Home For Children.
Good news from Credit Card companies?!
Wow, now what about those corporations, etc?!
@David , Indiana
I heard that the airplanes that could not land today, were diverted back to DR airport. As Anderson and others have reported, apparently Haiti's airport is too crowded and DR has more planes waiting until there is room in Haiti for them to land.
Great report by Gary! I have to wonder how the woman in Gary's report was able to hold her composure for all that time. Gary was right, she did look beautiful.
How long can someone survive buried with no food or water? I thought that after 3-4 days without water, that's about it.
well... thanks catsup
How wonderful to see that beautiful
woman!
Anderson, you are so respectful and caring in your reporting....
Please put up Canadian Organizations on your show that Canadians can donate towards!
Take care and be safe
Anderson Cooper, I believe a great many American's are concerned that donations and aid is going to end up in the few hands of extremely corrupt and greedy individuals, is there any accountability on the massive amounts of aid and funding going to Haiti?
It's so sad that Haiti doesn't have rescue capabilities so they could get to people in the first 24 hours.
