I dont understand

The poor families do not need to give, isn't this more or less aimed at the richer families?

Great video, but how can we be sure that the Haitains are getting the donations ? Someone in the video mentioned 'long term', but what about Americans who are in need ? Haiti was in dire straights before the earthquake, and America shouldn't always have to take the lead in these instances . Especially when our house isn't in order. Americans don't have healthcare, but all of a sudden 100's of millions of dollars is raised for Haiti. Fine, BUT, when will poor Americans also get attention ?
