New Zealanders are continuing to respond generously to the victims of Haiti's devastating magnitude 7.0 quake, with nearly $2 million raised by two aid organisations alone.
The January 12 quake killed more than 200,000, including New Zealand girls Kofi-Jade, five, and Zenzie Sanson-Rejouis, three, and their French-Haitian father Emmanual Rejouis.
Emily Sanson-Rejouis of Nelson, her two-year-old daughter Alyahna survived.
Save the Children New Zealand chief executive Liz Gibbs said the organisation had raised more than $960,000 in the past three months.
"The generosity of New Zealanders has enabled our organisation to reach more than 550,000 people - at least 240,000 of them children," Ms Gibbs said.
"Children are still living in crowded camps and are highly vulnerable and the education system lies in ruins. We are still working around clock to provide assistance."
Red Cross New Zealand has raised $939,000, while the Government has contributed $400,000.
