Haiti Earthquake Response
On January 12, 2010, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Port au Prince, Haiti, a city and country totally unprepared for such an event. In response to the resulting disaster, RAM is using the DC-3 aircraft and a number of RAM volunteers to provide care to victims. We will post updates here as they come in.
