After weeks of starving, the Haitian's now have a new food distribution program from the United Nations that involves paper coupons that are good for 55 pounds of rice. The coupons have quickly become more valuable than money and diamonds. The food is scarce and Haitian's are scared to go hungry. Before the coupon program, food distribution was nothing but confusion and chaos. Aids are hoping this helps organize life after the earthquake easier.

• Haitians should be plural and don't need the possessive apostrophe X2
• Who are these "Aids" you mention? I think you mean "aides".
• Much of this story is opinion and you don't attribute it. Who says the coupons are valuable? Who says before it was chaos?
