Comments on: Special Tax Deduction for Haiti Donations Made in 2010 http://www.mydollarplan.com/haiti-tax-deduction/ because money doesn't grow on trees Tue, 07 Feb 2012 15:59:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Amanda L.

It has been difficult to find information for how much aid has been given by the U.S., but based off of your question, I was just able to find this link at the Guardian in the UK that shows a breakdown (as of February 8, 2010). Looks like the U.S. has pledged $466,879,506. The world total is now at $2,422,202,996, though this is for pledged, and does not necessarily mean the money has been donated yet. Great question. http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/2010/jan/14/haiti-quake-aid-pledges-country-donations#data Hi Kevin: Thank you for the update–how tragic.
