WASHINGTON: The Inter-American Development Bank said on Tuesday it would provide $200,000 in immediate emergency aid to help Haiti deal with the devastating earthquake.
IADB President Luis Moreno said in a statement the funds will be used to provide food, water, medicine and temporary shelter for victims of the massive quake. He said the development bank, which focuses on Latin America and the Caribbean, could tap more resources to help with Haiti's reconstruction.
