Wyclef Jean Calling Out For Help

“We are calling for a state of emergency, please President Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton… we have to do something for this country.” —–Wyclef Jean


Wyclef Jean, ex- member of the hip-hop group Fugees and his wife fashion designer Marie Claudinette Jean, spent their Thursday clearing the bodies from the streets at Port Au-Prince. He helped his fellow native Haitis picking up dead bodies, but the problem is the morgues and cemeteries are now filled up. He is calling for a state of emergency, and he said that in order Haiti to survive, they need a million dollars a day. He has become the celebrity face of the Haitian earthquake appeal after flying into his home country to pull bodies from the rubble. Jean has his charity where he raised money it is called Yele Haiti, he founded it on 2005. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt who previously worked with his foundation supported him, backing up his call for help.

Jean aside from his charity Yele Haiti, has also worked with the United Nations World Food Programme and the Pan American Development Foundation to improve food distribution in the country.
