On, Tuesday, January 12, an earthquake with a 7.3 magnitude rocked and devastated Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The earthquake crushed the national palace, the cathedral, hospitals, schools, a prison and entire neighborhoods. Even the United Nations office collapsed and between 50 – 100 staff members are missing. While there is no official count, thousands are feared dead.
In effort to help the impoverished nation, South Florida’s top promoters and entertainment companies have teamed up with the Carma Foundation (www.carmafoundation.org) to raise money. Founded by Melky Jean, Wyclef Jean’s sister, Carma’s mission is to improve the health of poor vulnerable women and children in Haiti. Before the earthquake, Haiti had the highest poverty level in the western hemisphere. It is evident that the recent earthquake has plunged the country into further hardship. Haiti needs our help.
The event will be held on Monday, January 18 at Karma Nightclub in South Beach, FL.
