Martina Raymond (R), 5, stands in front of her family tent with neighbor Revdania Henry, 4, in a makeshift camp at the Petionville golf club on Jan. 11, 2011 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. According to UNICEF, over half of the four million children in Haiti still do not attend school. In addition to educational difficulties, Haiti's children also suffer from unequal access to basic water, health care and sanitation. January 12, 2011 marks the one-year anniversary of the Haitian earthquake that killed more than 200,000 people.
