Cardiff Council’s Deputy Leader, Cllr Judith Woodman said: “The plight of the Haitian people is heartbreaking, although there is no official death toll, millions have been affected by the earthquake that hit the capital city Port-Au-Prince.
“The generosity of the UK public has been overwhelming. I hope that offering people the opportunity to donate via the Council Cashiers office will result in more money for the appeal. The money donated is providing essential aid to the people of Haiti, including food, blankets, and medical support.”
