(NECN: Washington) – Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton this morning hosted an appreciation event for Haiti earthquake task force volunteers.

“Since I have been honored to be the Secretary of State, nothing has made me prouder than your response to this catastrophe,” said Clinton.

“The earthquake tested our capacity in so many ways,” said Clinton.

The January quake killed an estimated 230,000 people and left 1.3 million homeless.

Haiti is short on shelter and suffering growing violence in camps of thousands of homeless.
