Haitains wait for buses at a bus station in Port-au-Prince on January 25, 2010 to leave the capital. More than 235,000 Haitians have taken advantage of free transport to flee the quake-struck Port-au-Prince area, where as many as 800,000 are thought to have gathered in makeshift camps, the UN said today.

It's been nearly two weeks since a 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti. Aid supplies are rolling in and the United States military has been there since the day after the quake, but are things getting any better? Are supplies reaching the people who need them most? As celebrity charities air on American television, what's happening on the ground in Haiti and what needs to happen next?
