2010 earthquake

The federation, which had struggled financially for years, lost all but two of its more than 30 officials during the 2010 earthquake.[7] Also because of the earthquake, the national stadium's field, as well as many other stadiums, were converted to be used as housing for survivors and refugees in makeshift tents.[7][8] Due to the financial and personal losses of the federation, large financial sums were donated by FIFA and globallyhigh-ranking individuals within the sport, as well as a $3 million fund for rebuilding infrastructure that had been created by FIFA.[7]There was discussion to build another stadium with funds proceeded from the Petrocaribe Fund during the Michel Martelly administration from 2011-2016, but no action was taken and the monies went unaccounted for, and Olivier Martelly, one of the sons of Michel Martelly blamed it on politics in the country.
