The article situates the theme of help and generosity by examining responses of communities in Grand’Anse province to the 2010 disaster in Haiti. This emblematic case reveals how oft-unmentioned familial and community mechanisms that go beyond the reach of state and international institutions were essential to the survival of Haitians, and constituted a highly effective emergency response, despite the scarcity of resources and despair caused by the destruction. Drawing on the literature on humanitarian aid and development, through a processual approach, I suggest that the ways in which Haitian society dealt with the aftermath question the notions of disaster and help, offering unique guidance about how the problems and challenges presented by critical events might be addressed more effectively.
