The 4-star charity Direct Relief International is one of the many charities providing aid in Haiti. Not long after the earthquake, Direct Relief International took the time to answer 10 questions from donors submitted on the site reddit.
One of the first questions addressed in the video (below) concerns how the many different charities are coordinating their efforts. Direct Relief International's representatives explained how the UN is using a cluster system to deal with the logistics of such a massive undertaking.
