In this Sept. 16, 2010 picture, Elisee Anderson, right, and his friends walk home after soccer practice next to a refugee camp for people displaced by the January 2010 earthquake at the sports complex L'Athletique D'Haiti in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. On the edge of a ruined city of concrete and tin, fallen walls reveal what for years was a hidden refuge: a field of well-trimmed grass. It is a physical embodiment of the grassroots aid experts say is needed in Haiti, yet despite the billions donated to Haiti after the earthquake, the athletic club that runs the field and many other small groups are scrambling to stay afloat.
