federal aid in foreign countries

So this week we are reading The Big Truck That Went By by Jonathan Gatz.
As we discussed in class, countries have good intentions to help countries in need, such as Haiti after the eartquake disaster in 2010. But to better tell of the relief efforts made, the author, Jonathan Katz, gives a speech about his book and relief efforts.
