Actress-turned-activist MIA FARROW visited victims of storm-ravaged Haiti storms on Sunday (21Sep08).
The UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador hopes to raise awareness of the country's plight after a string of devastating storms have left more than 300 citizens dead.
Tropical storm Fay started the crisis last month (Aug08), followed by Hurricane Gustav. Tropical storm Hanna, followed by Hurricane Ike further damaged the troubled island earlier this month (Sep08).
Farrow says, "I saw a city mostly submerged in deep mud (and) people still stranded on roof tops. Other people are still living in schools and in a church.
"There is a sense of confusion, loss and anger. The people in the shelters had not eaten for days, (there is) not enough water coming - of course there is in no sanitation of any kind.
"My hope is to be a good steward of this information, to take this message to the United States and the international community with the hope that the conscience of the world will respond."
The World Health Organization has said that 800,000 people have been affected by the four major storms.
