A wounded Haitian man struggles in pain to carry a heavy beam through rubble-strewn downtown Port-au-Prince two weeks following the massive earthquake that struck Haiti in January 2010. Haitians who lost everything collected whatever could be salvaged from collapsed buildings to help rebuild their homes. Over 350,000 people were killed and one million were left homeless to live in makeshift tents made from bedspreads, sheets, and plastic, or whatever they could find.
