How many non governmental organization (NGO)are in the US? How many are in Africa? How many are in Haiti? Must people wouldn't know the answer to this question. There are approximately over 200 NGO's in the United State. Some of these NGO are in collaboration with universities such as Penn State and other christian universities. Africa is the largest continent in the world yet it has less NGO's than Haiti. There are approximately 10,000 NGO's in Haiti. What are these NGO's? Who are they? And what are they doing? For the amount of NGO's that are in Haiti one would assume that poverty situation would be improving. Yet the people of Haiti are far more worst off then they were prior to the NGO's. One has to wonder what are these organizations doing. I stumbled on this fascinating article about a lawyer who claims to have information pertaining to the true reason why there are so many organizations in Haiti.
