The First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, is making an unannounced visit to Haiti. She is expected to spend several hours in the Haitian capital Port-au-Prince, visiting projects set up in the wake of devastating earthquake in January. The First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden are visiting Haiti to underscore to the Haitian people and the Haitian government the enduring U.S. commitment to help Haiti recover and rebuild, especially as we enter the rainy and hurricane seasons, and to thank the women and men across the whole of the U.S. government for their extraordinary efforts in Haiti during the past three months. They will also reach out to the UN and international relief communities in recognition of the truly global effort underway to help Haiti.
