American Humane is one of the groups experienced with disaster relief.

The suffering defies description in the aftermath of the biggest earthquake to hit Haiti in centuries, and worldwide efforts to help the people in need reveal the empathy of the international community towards those whose very lives depend on what emergency supplies and care reach them in the next hours, days, weeks and months. Groups involved in aid efforts include Partners in Health, the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, UNICEF, the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, Oxfam, the Salvation Army, Save the Children, and many more.
 
Animals, too, are suffering. Wildlife, zoo animals, livestock, companion animals, and the large population of stray dogs are all in dire need of assistance. The Animal Relief Coalition for Haiti (ARCH) combines the efforts of many groups, including the two heading it: The International Fund for Animal Welfare and the World Society for the Protection of Animals. Among those who are part of the coalition are the American Humane Association, Best Friends, the ASPCA, and Humane Society International.
 
There are many ways to contribute to relief efforts, including through the groups listed above, all of which are taking donations that will go directly towards helping those in Haiti whose lives depend on it. People are truly in desperate need of water, food and medical care, and the animal survivors of the quake are, too.
