Wyclef Jean is asking for assistance for Haiti.

 

Wyclef has always been a supportive voice for his native country of Haiti, and now that they have suffered such an enormous tradegy, he speaks up even louder.  He ask everyone who can to make a donation towards the relief efforts of this recent earthquake disaster.

Here's what Wyclef had to say:

"Haiti faced a naturfal disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced.  The magnitude 7.0 earthquake -- and several very strong aftershocks -- struck only 10 miles from Port-au-Prince. I cannot stress enough what a human disaster this is, and idle hands will only mak this tragedy worse.  The over 2 million people in Port-au-Prince tonight face catastrophe alone. We must act now."

Those who want to help can donate $5 to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund by texting "Yele" to 501501 (the amount will be charged to the person's cell phone bill) or can visit www.Yele.org and click "Donate."
