: MediaTakeOut.com just got some very DISTURBING news. Some reputable agencies are questioning whether Wyclef's charity is a SCAM!!! We received reports that many agencies, including the Better Business Bureau is questioning whether Wyclef’s charity, Yele, should be COLLECTING MONEY for Haiti.
According to the Better Business Bureau, there are a number of ACCOUNTING IRREGULARITIES. Here's an excerpt from an Associated Press report:
Even as more than $2 million poured into The Wyclef Jean Foundation Inc. via text message after just two days, experts questioned how much of the money would help those in need.The website TheSmokingGun.com paints an even more SCANDALOUS picture. Here’s what they’re saying:"It's questionable. There's no way to get around that," said Art Taylor, president and chief executive of the Better Business Bureau's Wise Giving Alliance, based in Arlington, Va.
Taylor reviewed Internal Revenue Service tax returns for the organization also known as Yele Haiti Foundation from 2005 through 2007. He said the first red flag of poor accounting practices was that three years of returns were filed on the same day — Aug. 10 of last year.
In 2007, the foundation's spending exceeded its revenues by $411,000. It brought in just $79,000 that year.
"Here's the bottom line: for an earthquake of catastrophic proportions, do people really believe that this organization is in a position to do anything right now?" he said.
Internal Revenue Service records show the group has a lackluster history of accounting for its finances, and that the organization has paid the performer and his business partner at least $410,000 for rent, production services, and Jean's appearance at a benefit concert.But not all places are suggesting that the donations may go into Wyclef’s pocket. Here’s more from the AP article:
Sandra Miniutti, vice president of marketing for Charity Navigator, an organization that evaluates charities, said the foundation was too small to have been examined recently, although the current flood of goodwill may change that. Its revenue in 2008 was $1.9 million.We don't know what to think . . . But please DON'T let it stop you from DONATING!!!"My concern is it goes against our first tip, and that is to give only to groups with experience with disaster relief," Miniutti said. "I think it's very hard for a new organization even with the best intentions to handle something on this magnitude."
What do you Expect from WYCLEF...he's a Fu@#ing MASON!!! as much money that He has earned From "us/Fans"..WHY oh WHY didn't he Donate Like the Rest of Us???..Why he gotta "Raise" the Money when u have Celebrity's like Angelina an Brad pit Donating $1.5 Million and Madonna donating $250.000 from their Pocket??..HUH WYCLEF!!!???...News at 10.
If this is true,all I can say is damn! however I wouldn't be that surprised neither! Most of the times we never know what these organizations really do with the donations or how much they pocket. This is a really bad look on Wyclef since him being a Haitain native would make many ppl trust him..wow!
people visit the bbb website and look this up for yourself. there is no such claim against yele. this is something that others who have not been able to raise as much money put out there so folks will start donating to their charities instead of this one. anyone who knows anything knows that clef has been very active in his relations with Haiti. this charity did not start up overnight
come on son...
I wish some of you would stop believing everything you read on this site. They are looking into the past about the company that doesnt mean he`s pocketing the money. What the hell is MTO doing for Haiti? Not a damn thing except posting bullshit stories and now DISCOURAGING people who are prospective givers. This man has always stood by Haiti just b/c some people are investigating doesn`t mean [EXPLETIVE].
Wyclef don't need that dang charity money. They are just trying to slow down the process of getting those people on their feet. I tell you one thing they better get tehir azzes over there and get those dang people from under the rubble. Do they need civilians to go over there and dig. How could regular Americans load up and go to help htese people?
I seriously doubt it; that dude loves his people and has been aiding them every chance he gets before and after disasters that have affected them..I think certain people want this to be true because they don't give a sht to help their fellow man and are jealous when someone who has the means can..True Talk.Brooklyn Lives-Stillmatic
DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!! THE RED CROSS IS AS BIG A SCAM AS THE REST OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS. THEY COLLECTED MILLIONS FOR KATRINA VICTIMS AND THE PEOPLE OF NEW ORLEANS ARE STILL IN DIRE STRAITS. THE RED CROSS HAS HAD QUESTIONABLE ACCOUNTING PRACTICES FOR YEARS. WHERE WERE THEY AND THE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WHEN WYCLEF WAS IN HAITI SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR HELPING HIS PEOPLE OUT. THIS SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE TRYING TO STEER US AWAY FROM DONATING TO HIS CHARITY SO THESE CROOKS CAN GET THEIR GREEDY HANDS ON THESE FUNDS. I ALREADY SENT MY $5 TO HIS ORGANIZATION.
The Red Cross is an illuminati foundation, and Wyclef more than likely is an illuminati puppet. Don't give your money to them if you don't want to get swindled. And those Save the Children funds are the same, little to none of that money sent goes to those starving children, and I can make a safe guess that they get millions a year from donations.
I believe that Wycleff was connected to the Elites but I personally think he has woken up to the reality of whats going on dont be distracted right now the Haitians need foods and clothes Cuba and other countries is doing a good job providing health care and clothes,IS THIS A MILITARY OCCUPATION TO START WAR WITH CUBA AND VENEZUELA seeing that the CLIMATE DEAL NEVER GO THROUGH google Danny Glover has just revealed the same thing THE ELITES ARE OUT FOR REVENGE
After leading the charge to help victims of the earthquake in Haiti, Wyclef is now in the hot seat about some of the past ways his charity has used its funds. Pop the hood for a closer look.
By Friday morning, just days after the earthquake hit, Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti Foundation had raised more than $1.5 million.
Undoubtedly, Jean’s celebrity helped draw in donors: He’s an internationally known musician from Haiti who won a Grammy with the Fugees and went on to a hugely successful solo career. But an analysis of the charity’s tax returns raises questions about how it has spent money in the past, with administrative expenses that appear to be higher than comparable charities and payments to businesses owned by the musician and a board member, including $100,000 for a performance by Jean at a 2006 benefit concert.
“It seems clear that a significant amount of the monies that this charity raises go for costs other than providing benefits to Haitians in need,” said Dean Zerbe, national managing director of Alliant Group, a tax services company, and the former tax counsel to the Senate Finance Committee, which oversees charities.
“It brings real caution for donors that want to help in Haiti that they might want to take a harder look at this organization but also consider the significant number of charities that have been doing good work in Haiti that don’t have these question marks,” Zerbe said.
Hugh Locke, president of Yele Haiti, said the charity does what others can’t, because Jean gives it unusual access to the country’s slums. He said the group hopes to spend a higher percentage of its budget on services as it gains experience. “I think people should be very comfortable that any money given to Yele Haiti is going 100 percent to emergency relief.”
The earthquake prompted so much donor interest in Yele Haiti that its Web site crashed Thursday. Yele Haiti also is getting much publicity at events, including a fundraiser Monday at the 9:30 Club and a telethon next Friday hosted by actor George Clooney. It is collecting supplies Sunday in Miami and airlifting them to Port-au-Prince next week, Locke said.
The charity provides scholarships, funds a soccer team, takes students on environmental-education camping trips and employs women to cook for schools, according to Yele Haiti. After a 2008 storm, it helped a food program distribute emergency rations to 6,000 families without violence, Locke said, organizing the community to distribute the food rather than sending in aid workers with armed guards.
But its financial records raise questions, experts say. In 2006, Yele Haiti had about $1 million in revenue, according to tax documents. More than a third of the money went to payments to related parties, said lawyer James Joseph, who specializes in nonprofit issues.
“It might be completely legitimate. But it’s certainly something I would want to look into more carefully,” Joseph said.
For instance, the charity recorded a payment of $250,000 to Telemax, a TV station and production company in Haiti in which Jean and Jerry Duplessis, both members of Yele Haiti’s board of directors, had a controlling interest. The charity paid about $31,000 in rent to Platinum Sound, a Manhattan recording studio owned by Jean and Duplessis. And it spent an additional $100,000 for Jean’s performance at a benefit concert in Monaco. Locke said that Jean and Duplessis were unavailable for comment Friday.
The Telemax money was used for “everything from public-service announcements to educational programming,” said Jesse Derris of the public relations firm Sunshine, Sachs and Associates, which is representing Yele Haiti. They used their own company “because it was a way to buy time at a significant discount.”
The rent included office space and shared receptionist services for the charity and is “severely reduced” below market rate, Derris said. All the proceeds of the benefit concert went directly to Yele Haiti, he said. Locke said the $100,000 included expenses, such as payments to backup musicians and production costs.
Yele Haiti reported nearly $1.9 million in income on its 2008 tax return.
I donated through the Red Cross and UNICEF sites. I was reluctant to use Yele, not because I didn't trust it's intentions, but because I was uncertain if those running the organization had specific training in management, finance and accounting for a charitable foundation. I needed more time for research, but the people in Haiti need immediate relief. God bless Wyclef and Yele.
DO NOT DONATE TO THE RED CROSS OR ANY GOVERNMENT CHARITIES..... WE ARE NATURAL BORN SURVIVORS THE WEST HAS CORRUPTED THIS COUNTRY FOR YEARS AND YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THERE WAS NO CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT TO HELP LIFT ALL THAT HEAVY MASONRY OFF THOSE POOR TRAPPED.... PEOPLE.... MOST COUNTRIES ARE AT RISK NOW FROM THESE MAD PEOPLE WHOSE QUEST GLOBAL DOMINANCE HAS FAILED THEY ARE OUT CONTROL
I don't think Wyclef is trying to scam people but it is true that it is a small organization and doesn't have as much experience as other charities.
I DONATED to the AMERICAN RED CROSS because I KNOW they have been doing disaster assistance for almost 130 years. I KNOW they know what they are doing when a MAJOR disaster happens.
I WARNED OF THIS THE OTHER DAY, WITH BONO AND BOB GELDOF... CELEBS BEING USED AS PUPPETS.. LIVE AID.... LIVE AID AFRICA WHERE HAS ALL THAT MONEY GONE MICHEAL JACKSON KNEW AND WAS ABOUT TO REVEAL EVERYTHING, RIGHT NOW TONS OF FOOD AND CLOTHES HAS ARRIVED IN HAITI BUT STILL NOT REACHING THE PEOPLE... WHY? WHO NOMINATED THE WEST TO MILITARIZE THE AIRPORTS, WHY ARE OTHER COUNTRIES BEING TOLD NOT TO HELP THE INJURED, TO RETURN BACK TO THEIR COUNTRIES FOR SAFETY IN CASE... ANARCHY BREAKS OUT
FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT MAY HAVE DOUBTS DON'T LET THAT DETER YOU FROM GIVING TO A ORGANIZATION THAT YOU FEEL IS MORE REPUTABLE....THERE ARE SEVERAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE ASKING FOR CLOTHS,FEMININE PRODUCTS, PAMPERS , BABY FORMULA ETC, CONTACT YOUR LOCAL NEWS CHANNEL...IN FACT THEY STRESSED THE NEED 4 FORMULA & PAMPERS
MTO now is not the time for this foolishness. when are PPL going to stop believing everything they here or see. poor accounting practices, that guy is stupid and pist, my non profit, I file every 3 years. why? because the law says I can. their system has been interrupted. 2M in 2days, red Cross didn't do that much with Katrina. Goodwill; fact, 85cent of every 1dollar gos to overhead, and they're still charging for clothing. red Cross, Goodwill and IRS are all profit/profit organizations. keep giving to YELE
With most relief organizations when people make donations the organization also uses the money to pay administration fees to keep them up and running. I'm sure the expenses being spoke of here are no different. People do not be fooled into thinking every single penny of your donation will be sent to those in need. These organizations have to pay people to make sure their efforts are carried out. About a third of your contribution is used for admin fees. This is no different. The IRS & BBB also looks into The Red Cross, Feed The Children and other non profit orgs.
all of you coming on here with your conspiracy theories sound retarded.the bottom line is you take a risk whenever you let ANYBODY else handle your money whether its wyclef,red cross,or whoever.just donate what you can knowing that you are doing whats best in your heart and if there are people mishandling the money let karma catch back up with them
I STILL CAN UNDERSTAND FOR THE LIFE OF ME WHY SOME OF THE INJURED OR ABANDONED CANT BE SENT TO THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC FOR MEDICAL HELP REFUGE.. WHY ARE THE ORPHANED CHILDREN BEING SHIPPED TO FRANCE, GERMANY FUTURE SLAVES MAY BE WHY AREN'T THE SURROUNDING COUNTRIES OFFERING REFUGE FOR THESE ORPHANS.. SORRY IM SO FRUSTRATED SEEING THESE PEOPLE SUFFERING ADDITIONALLY ..FOR NO REASON
i hear yall but i think imma ride with clef untill proven guilty. and im kinda disappointed in MTO for this. i realize yall a GOSSIP site and not a NEWS site so i expect a lot of bull on here, thats what i log on for. but for yall to go ahead and throw the red cross link and discredit clef's charity is some bullshit
@TRIXIE...I FEEL THE SAME...IT'S TRULY SAD @ HOW LAX & BOTCH THIS RESCUE EFFORT IS...THE NATIONAL GUARDS HAVE BEEN GROUNDED FOR 7 DAYS IN MY CITY & WE'RE STILL UNCERTAIN WHY??? A CHURCH IN MY CITY HAS DONATED 14 MOBILE CLINICS & CANT FIND ANY COMPANIES THAT WILL SHIP THEM THERE 4 FREE...IS IT B/C THESE PPL ARE POOR & THEY FEEL THERE NOT WORTH...THE FOOTAGE HAS REALLY BOTHERED ME...I WISH THERE WAS MORE I COULD DO BESIDES JUST DONATING MONEY/CLOTHES/& FORMULA
THESE ARE NOT CONSPIRACY THEORIES.. THIS IS FACT THE WEST DO CONTROL ALL OF THE UNDERDEVELOPED COUNTRIES WEALTH AND MONEY SYSTEM,YET WHEN THERE IS A NATURAL DISASTER IN THESE PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS LEFT SUFFERING IF THOSE COUNTRIES ARE LEFT THE HELL ALONE TO GET ON WITH MANAGING THEIR OWN COUNTRY/FINANCES EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE INSTEAD OF MODELING THE WESTERN WAY OF LIVING.. CONCRETE JUNGLE. IN AMERICA HOUSES ARE MADE OF WOOD.. IN HAITI HOUSES ARE MADE OF HEAVY CONCRETE WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT PICTURE, PEOPLE STARVING DYING AND ALL THE WEST COULD FOCUS ON WAS THEY PRACTICE VODOO IN HAITI SO [EXPLETIVE]
@GLASSDOLL THIS BOTHERS ME BECAUSE THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED ANYWHERE.. NOT BECAUSE YOUR NOT FROM HAITI .WHERE IS THE GOVERNMENT SPOKES PEOPLE? THE MAIN MEDIA FOCUSES ON LOOTING.. YET OTHER OUTLETS HAVE SHOWED PEOPLE HELPING EACH OTHER.. I HAVE SEEN HAITIANS USING THEIR BARE HANDS RESCUING PEOPLE, SO HEART BREAKING, WHERE JUST A NORMAL HAND DRILL COULD BE USED
I would have given this lame ass article credence if you didn't redirect us to The Red Cross.
Yall ought to be shot. Wyclef and his WIFE are in the trenches, lifting dead bodies BY HAND! He has been involved in rebuilding Haiti LONG before any earthquake. Hoe much did Red Cross pay yall to say that isht.
Yo. Go to DIMEWARS.com and watch the video with Wyclef. Then come back into this thread and let the owners of this site know they are some f*ckin [EXPLETIVE]!
@MARIA7 TRUE IF THE ROADS ARE THAT BAD.. WHY DIDNT THEY LOAD IN DOMINICA REPUBLIC AND USE HELICOPTERS TO TRANSPORT THE BASICS FOOD AN WATER.. RIGHT NOW THE PEOPLE CAN EAT MONEY.. RATHER THAN CLOG THE PORTS FOOD WITH MONEY CAN COME LATER TO DEVELOP THE COUNTRY SEND FOOD/CLOTHES AND WATER IF YOU CAN I'M GOING TO SEE HOW I CAN SEND THESE BASIC ITEMS
Whitey wants to keep control of all "aide" missions...FEMA took 7 days to get to Katrina victims!!!!!!! But was in NYC sept 10th PRIOR to 911, are you connecting the dots??? Wyclef has been in Haiti since the first 24hrs!!!! He has businesses there and reps Haiti to the fullest. Don't buy into the White mans allegations, they will bamboozle you everytime!
Some Black folks get confused and trifling so fast they don't know where they're going. This ain't about white man's organization vs black man's organization. It's about donating to an organization that can put forth a concerted effort to provide assistance in a disaster.
Disaster organizations provide essentials like medical assistance, food, clothing and temporary shelter.
Haiti has a sorry ass government that can't lead in an emergency so other governments have to bring in heavy equipment and tools to move collapsed buildings. It takes time.
Now chill on that silly ish!
WHATEVER. WYCLEF IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS COUNTRY BEING SOLD OUT.
WYCLEF DID NOT LEAVE THE PEOPLE OF HAITI POOR AND UNABLE TO THRIVE.
THE CRACKAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF HAITI WANT YOU TO THINK DONATING TO THEM IS MORE BETTER.
THE WHITE MAN HAS BEEN POCKETING MONEY FOR YEARS AFTER POSING IN PICS WITH INNOCENT BLACK BABIES. THE WHITE MAN IS AFTER A HERO STATUS.
THEY ARE THE SAME ONES COMPLAINING ABOUT WYCLEF.
THIS IS A DAMN SHAME, AND I AM SAD BECAUSE OF WHAT I HAVE LEARNED LATELY ABOUT THIS COUNTRY :(
I KNEW SOMETHING WAS OFF WITH WYCLIFF WHEN HE CUT HIS DREADS OFF, THAT WAS WHEN HE WAS MOST MILITANT. SINCE HE BECAME LIKE A BLUE COLLAR CRIME WORKER, SUITED AND BOOTED I THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS OFF, I KNOW SOME OF THESE CELEBS ARE IN BED WITH THE GOVERNMENTS ON ANOTHER MEDIA OUTLET HE WAS ASKED DOES HE HAVE ANY CONCERNS FOR HIS FAMILY THERE, HE REPLIED HE HAD CONCERNS FOR A RAPPER HE HAD JUST SENT THERE, I THOUGHT THAT RESPONSE WAS A BIT ODD,I HAVENT SINCE WYCLIFF SINCE HE ARRIVED YESTERDAY,ALL I AM SEEING IS WHITE CHARITY WORKERS, ACTING LIKE THEY ARE THE SAVIOUR OF MANKIND WHERE HVE THEY COME
So tired of hearing negative things whenever black ppl are involved! They love discouraging us when we trying to do something positive! I don't believe this crap! MTO, You guys are contributing to discouraging others! They don't want to see a black man shine for his works! What about other Organizations? Did they make it a point to investigate them???
This is NadiaT2 Just wanted to say, anybody questioning Wyclef's charity should do their homework and familiarize themselves with the work Clef been providing in Haiti... Giving scholarships, feeding folks, building schools, cleaning streets, etc...Media Take Out should really be responsible in their reporting...This article is RIDICULOUS to even post, considering that Wyclef Jean has earned AWARDS for his humanitarian work!
@trixie you speak the truth. The U.S. won't let the Haitians in this country when they try to escape every day from such poverty. So why would they allow them in now? Sometimes I think the U.S. is all for show. Look how long it took for relief within their on selves. New Orleans and Haiti are tit for tat...they both are majority black. And I hope Wyclef ain't decieving people because I gain alot of respect for him when BET gave him a humanitarian award.
IT IS A WHITEMAN THING.. IF THE ELITES CONTROL THE MAJORITY OF THE WORLD FINANCES MAKING SURE THERE IS A COKE A COLA,MCDONALD.KFC IN PLACE IN EACH COUNTRY,THEY SHOULD MAKE SURE CRISIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE IN PLACE AS WELL, WHITEMAN KNOW OUR HISTORY SO KNOW THESE COUNTRIES ARE PRONE TO NATURAL DISASTERS AS THEY SAY, YET NO CRISIS MECHANISM IS IN PLACE OR STORED IN SURROUNDING COUNTRIES, YET THESE SAME PEOPLE MAKE SURE THEY HAVE MILITARY EQUIPMENT IN EVERYONE COUNTRY TO PROTECT THEIR CAPITALIST ASSETS SMDH
@Safari I have done research on the latest financial situation, I think certain events are for martial law practiceS for when things go bad in America and England soon California is on the verge of collapse, all the English/US gold reserve are in gold plated bars not real gold at all, yes a certain amount of immigrants will be allowed in as economic slaves while the west rob these countries of what they can. all those folks wishing to be rich like Beyonce and Jay TRUST ME THERE WISH IS GOING TO COME TRUE a lot of countries are defaulting on there loans which could leave to hyperinflation meani
could lead to hyperinflation, watch the Weiner Republic in Germany where the currency was so weak people burned it to keep warm, the dollar will be worth nothing, they are predicting it could be worse than the Zimbabwean currency where 10 dollars could soon become a million because the majority of the world debt in in dollars, so the one world currency was in place already.
@ SHI---> THEY DON'T WANT US TO BELIEVE THE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS LIKE RED CROSS MISMANAGES DONATIONS!
THE MEDIA'S JOB IS TO DISCOURAGE BLACK FOLK FROM ORGANIZING BY ANY MEANS. THEY HAVE TO SAY NEGATIVE THINGS TO TRICK YOU.
THEIR GOAL IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO STOP BLACKS FROM ORGANIZING.
WYCLEF IS NOT THE BAD GUY HERE.
REMEMBER KATRINA... PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE THOSE IN POWER DID NOT FEEL THE PEOPLE WERE WORTHY OF BEING HELPED. THE FACT THEY DELAYED THE RESCUE WAS NO COINCIDENCE.
Honestly i am from the Caribbean, and wyclef has done a tremendous among of things for his native Haiti. I feel like he truly cares about his people and would never do such a thing, why now when his people need him the most. He has always been there for Haiti and will be there long after the media, loses interest.
all they were deciding was how they would govern and police this countries on a mass scale EPIC FAIL there plans have backfired with the Chinese hacking into their systems revealing everything, also the use of the internet which is waking people up,just today over here they announced that 1000 small banks are to close this year BY DESIGN SO ONLY LIMITED BIGGER BANKS WOULD CONTROL THE MONEY but folks are wondering what has happened to their BAILOUTS, the next round of real estate collapses is going to happen in Florida, where all the elite bought LUXURY holiday homes and timeshare villas
Let's be clear. The WHITE FOLKS didn't bring us this [EXPLETIVE] about Wyclef. MTO DID! That should be your first clue because no one else is talking about this.
Ain't [EXPLETIVE] new about white people taking advantage of other people. That's a fact but it won't help you or the Haitians to spend your time bitching about it. All that will do is allow you to sit on your ass and not do anything.
There is no proof that Wyclef's organization isn't doing what it says it does and there is proof that the American Red Cross is there in Haiti providing assistance.
Donate to whoever you are most comfortable with.
STOP THE SMEAR TACTIC!!! HAITI IS SUFFERING AND WYCLEF IS ON THE GROUND HELPING HIS PEOPLE! HIS ORGANIZATION'S HISTORY AND PERSONAL CONTRIBUTION TO HELPING HIS FELLOW HAITIANS SPEAK FOR ITSELF...IF YOU CAN TAKE THE TIME TO WRITE THIS ARTICLE, YOU CAN ALSO TAKE THE TIME TO TEXT [YELE] TO 501501 AND YES! 100% OF THE PROCEEDS WILL GO TO ACTUALLY HELP HAITIANS IN NEED!!! NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR YOUR NONSENSE AND PEOPLE WHO LOVE HAITI SHOULD DISREGARD YOUR ALLEGATIONS.
@trixie you really know your stuff. I think you mentioned the Dominican Republic. I was watching 20/20 last night and they were talking about these children being souled into slavery. I wish I was able to adopt a child now because my heart goes out to these kids. I wonder why this country that used to be so rich have 70 -80% of their population that can not read and write. What do you think about the peace corps?
Someone on here asked about the Dominican Republic. I saw on the news where the Dominican Republic will not let any of the survivors into their country unless they have documentation. WTF?? These people are fleeing a disaster situation, when did they have time to gather up documents? The news showed armed guards at the gate to the Dominican Republic, and all of these survivors pressed up against the gate on the other side. The guards were ready to shoot anyone trying to get in their country without documents. Truly sad and sickening.
@Greekness They spoke to a women about that THIS MORNING. China has been donating MILLIONS to Haiti well before this crisis HELPING THEM TO REBUILD THIS IS WHY THE WEST IS VEXED, BECAUSE OTHER COUNTRIES ARE RISING UP AND HELPING EACH OTHER. ALL THE OPPOSITION COUNTRIES ARE COMING OUT OF THE WOODWORK AND RISING UP, THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING IN PAKISTAN CHINA HAS A LOT OF AMERICAN DEBT SO IS USING THAT MONEY TO BUY MOST OF THE MONOPOLIES WORLDWIDE BEFORE THE DOLLAR BECOMES TOO WEAK THIS IS THE BEEF THAT IS REALLY GOING ON EAST vs WEST
@TXGLAMCHIC...WOW UR RIGHT THE ONLY PPL WERE FOREST PARK MEDICAL CTR..HAD A UHAUL COLLECTING ITEMS B/C THEY CHARTERED 2 PLANES 2 HELP WITH ASSISTING & HIGHLAND PARK UNITED METHODIST...& AMERICAN/EAGLE AIRLINES ALL OTHER ORGANIZATIONS ARE ONLY EXCEPTING FINIANCIALDONATIONS B/C THEY THE DEMANDS ARE CHANGING RAPIDLY..."EVERYBODY NEED CLOTHES THO"...IDK GIRL MAYBE SOME LOCAL CHURCHES THAT HAVEN'T WENT PUBLIC YET...BUT THAT'S A SHAME...I'LL KEEP MY EARS OPEN 4 YAH THO..GOOD LUCK!
MOST COUNTRIES WITH THE DIVIDE AND CONQUER RULE HATE EACH OTHER... CHINA AND OTHERS ARE TRYING TO MERGE THESE COUNTRIES BACK TOGETHER, A TASK CONSIDERING THE IMPERIALIST SPENT ALL THAT TO TIME DIVIDING THEM UP INTO BITS OF COUNTRIES FOR THEIR OWN GREED ESPECIALLY THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA NORTH KOREA/EAST KOREA, WEST BERLIN /EAST BERLIN ,JAPAN/ CHINA, INDIA /PAKISTAN ETC
BE PREPARED FOR MORE MAN MADE DISASTERS PEOPLE/COUNTRIES ARE NOW WAKING UP TO WHAT IS GOING ON IT WAS OK FOR THE ELITES TO MERGE COUNTRIES FOR THE NEW WORLD ORDER.. NOW THAT HAS FAILED THEY ARE BITTER AN TWISTED THEY DO NOT WANT COUNTRIES TO UNITE AFTER ALL ..I WONDER WHY BECAUSE NO ONE BOUGHT THE CLIMATEGATE [EXPLETIVE] NOT EVEN THE UNDERDEVELOPED NATIONS WITH SOME OF THE POOREST COUNTRIES OBJECTING.. THIS IS THE PUNISHMENT
Shame on you MTO, always sh*tting on the Blacks...It's a damn shame@topic regardless to who you donate to you are taking a risk. all the money 2 Katrina, that Tsnumai crisis and other recent disasters and they r still building EVERYONE who owns charity will put money in THEIR pocket that includes the Red Cross and too many to name charities&foundations. All the money that was raised 4 9/11 and Katrina has anyone Questioned those chariities. I believe Wyclef does help and he probably skimming money to. That's the American way!!!

Amazing...when caucasians didnt give a sit about Haiti Clef was out there pushing for his country and his people...along come this tragedy and now his work is suspect...sad part...YOU hankerchief head negros fall in line...True to form! Fcuk the Red Cross, not a blasted penny will they EVER get from me...never you forget how they treated BLACK AMERICANS in Lousiana during Katrina...but this doesnt matter to you celebrity stalkers...back to your fluff and puff...n*ggahs and flies...I do despise! There, I said it...nah whaa?
Funny how so many ppl are in an Uproar about the lack of just about everything in Haiti when the Gov't there for years has been non-existent for How many years now. Now everyone is so shocked and surprised that for the very least they don't have the bare minimums to help with rescue & medical. If this DID NOT happen NONE of YOU would have CARED. The DR is not helping they shooting on SITE.
@yeahrite Why dont you goolge Confessions of a ECONOMIC hitman and see just how the Redcross operate, furthermore if you read my previous comments you would know what I have decided to do already BUT I WILL DEFINITELY NOT DONATE TO THE RED CROSS, EVEN WHEN THEY CAME TO MY HOUSE JUST COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, BEGGING FOR MONEY I TOLD THEM WHERE TO POLITELY GO BELEIVE THERE IS NO GREEN GRASS THERE EITHER
Be very careful who you donate to and make sure that its to a reputable organization that has a proven track record of helping those in need. There are scammers that see an opportunity to exploit this tragedy for their own greed. If you run a charity the administrative costs should be lower than the actual funds going to help the needy.
What would wyclef put in all that work. I mean he is from haiti. I really don't believe. I wouldn't give a dollar to red cross. I rather donate to yele. Don't believe the hype. Tyler perry has one too [link to external website removed] it's weird to me, after the earthquake in Haiti hit media want to say wyclef's charity is a scam smdh. Wyclef has been doing it since 2005. They been should of looked into it then, not now. Umm seem like red cross is mad wyclef getting more profit.
Trixie you ain't nothing but a trick. You aren't going to do anything but sit on your @ss trying to kept other Black people from actually getting something done which is why you should be ignored. I'm pretty sure people who know you personally do that already.
I put my money where my mouth is. Trixie all you can do is talk ish.
@Hotbunny I dont even think the Ameros is going to be used anymore, the west wanted to merge Mexico, Canada into one,roads leading to this countries were being built, thats why the never closed the borders. Lou Dobson of CNN spoke about it on his programme he was fired last year. Brazil,China Russia and India OR THE B.R.I.C NATIONS are campaigning for a whole new currency FOR TRADE, while letting nations keep there original money, this was the discussion which Obama was kept out of, at Copenhagen climate meeting because he did not agree
Hey people stop believing everythig you read on these social sites and not CNN. Wyclef was doing for Haiti for years. It was shown on 60 minutes a couple of years ago. He has been there for him since he left. Don't allow unreliable sources tell u not to give back. That's what they want. They don't want to give back to Haiti. When other countries had disasters did we hear any of this? Stop falling for everything. Twitter.com/oddchic
@yeah rite Im not about to get into an argument with you.. now is not the time, i'm revealing to those who care to acknowledge the bigger picture for their own good including MY SELF AND FAMILY if you dont like what I have posted then just schroll past or do your own research and prove us wrong. I bet the people killed in the Jewish camps, held in slavery had that chance, im for fighting the bigger MAN, WHETHER ITS SPIRITUALITY OR VERBALLY, if I am wrong I will eat humble pie some people may not care but I do,you always going to get disinformationists come on to deflect from the issues OH WEL
I DONT TRUST ANGELINA JOLIE ARE BRAD PITT THEY AINT NOTHING BUT SOME CELIBRITY FREAKS TRYING TO DEVELOP A GOOD IMAGE BY HEADING CHARITIES AND ADOPTING KIDS JUST FOR SHOW ONLY DUMB BLACK WOMEN WORSHIP PEOPLE AMERICA WANT THEM TO WORSHIP I DONT TRUST NOBODY AMERICAN AND EUROPEANS BACK EVEN IF THE PERSON IS BLACK THAT THEY SUPPORT.
There's no argument to get into. That would actually require you to work and I already know you ain't about to do that. You can just sit on your @ss and wait for the Chinese (of all people) to come help you put the world in order. Make sure you have enough potato chips and pork rinds because you're going to be waiting a long time.
As for the rest of you Black folks, get something done in 2010 that doesn't include running your mouth.
@YEAHRITE AGAIN IF YOU READ MY COMMENTS YOU WOULD KNOW THAT IM AM NOT JUST SITTING ON MY ARSE, UNTIL WE AS BLACK PEOPLE, THATS IF YOU ARE A BLACK PERSON, ARE IN A POSITION MENTALLY AND SPIRITUALITY TO RUN OUR OWN AFFAIRS WE HAVE NO CHOICE ON WHO GOVERNS US, WHETHER IT IS CHINA OR THE IMPERIALISTS IN THIS PRESENT TIME, HARPING ON OLD TRADITONS REGARDING IF HAITI IS SUFFERING BECAUSE OF VOODOO PRACTICE ISNT HELPING, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING NOW TO CHANGE THE GAME PLAN, WHICH REQUIRES SOME FORM OF UNITY NOT BACKBITING
CONT THE IMPERIALIST WERE SO BUSY FOCUSING HOW THEY CAN GET RID OF THE BLACK POPULATION WITH SYPHILLIS, AIDS,DIABETES, SWINE FLU, WARS EXPERIMENT ETC ,THEY TOOK THEIR EYES OF OTHER DEVELOPING UNITED NATIONS, WHILE KEEPING US DIVIDED.. ALL BY DESIGN OF COURSE.. SO YES I AM HAPPY THE ARE GETTING THERE COME UPPANCE, YOU THINK IS LITTLE TIME I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THESE PEOPLE, ITS ONLY NOW FOLKS ARE CONTACTING ME SAYING WHAT I BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG WAS TRUE
I would rather donate 2 wyclef then 2 donate 2 the red cross with all the scams they have goin on. When u donate 2 the red cross the money is put on reserve for the next natural disaster. Shot and does fema still even exist after hurricane katrina? I know there are many nonreputiable charties and I hope wycelfs is not 1 of them.I rather my money help now then help later.
Whatever. As a Katrina survivor, I could tell you some thangs about the Red Cross, ya heard me? Text YELE to 501051, plenty of people have been working with Yele Haiti for years, including some Haitian business people I know. Don't let the media bring this brotha down. I know he wouldn't do his precious country like that, we West Indians just aren't raised that way.
WHO BELIEVES THE I.R.S OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT RAN ORGANIZATION FOR THAT MATTER. I GUESS IF I WAS GOING TO GET PHUKD THEN ID RATHER IT BE BY SOMEBODY NEW INSTEAD OF THE SAME PPL WHO GET OVER EVERYDAY. THE RED CROSS DOESNT GIVE ALL OF THEIR $ TO THE CAUSE. THEY PAY EMPLOYEES, 4 FOOD, TRIPS, HOTELS...ECT SO BASICLY THEY ARE PAID FOR THEIR APPEARANCES TOO. IF YOU DID DONATE TO WYCLEF THEN THAT IS LESS $ OWED BACK TO THE U.S. THAT MEANS LESS CONTROL--LESS DEPT.
i fuggin KNEW the media was going to come afyer a black person and say they stealing even if he was white man do the sheet ALL the time every fuggin day on all levels aig,enron,world.com,bernie merdoff stole fuggin BILLIONS for like 25-30 yrs white media tring to camouflage THEY sheet pointing fuggin fingers at the blackman and blackwoman!
I pray to God that Wyclef uses that money wisely. I don't see how anyone, especially one who is Haitian could misuse money especially at a time like this. I donated to his foundation. I had good intentions and I expect that my money is used exactly for what I intended it to be used for. To tell you the truth, I don't trust many of these organizations. People are saying "Thank God I donated to The Red Cross." I've heard so many stories about The Red Cross misusing their funds also, so at the end of the day, what're you gonna do? Haitians need our help, let's get it together people.

I'm I the only one get a laugh out of spiderman300 comments? and guess what I agree with the first one. This is a billion dollar pledging business right now at least thats how the big corp like the Red Cross, Salvation Army etc are looking at it, and Wyclef is the competition cause he's black and they feel that black people will identify with him. Its always a way to scam and deceit black folks and guess what they too will keep more than half the donation. You will never win, you give from the heart and pray whomever will do the right thing.
As sad as it may seems, the Red Cross and other big corporations benefit more from disasters like Haiti and New Orleans. With all the money they get, they don't have to spend all of it cause with all the other organizations and government assiatnce involve, they don't have to spend all monies rec'd but keep it for a rainy day. However, its a given that this is when most people will pledge donations.
FROM XXL MAGAZINE CLEARS WYCLEF'S NAME Just one day after thesmokinggun.com posted an article on their site questioning the history of Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti Foundation, the president of the organization has issued a response.
As previously reported, TSG has obtained the tax returns of Clef’s charity, which show that the former Fugees frontman and his business partner, Jerry Duplessis, have been compensated over $400,000 in rent, production services and appearance fees from the organization since its creation 12 years ago.

Just one day after thesmokinggun.com posted an article on their site questioning the history of Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti Foundation, the president of the organization has issued a response.
As previously reported, TSG has obtained the tax returns of Clef’s charity, which show that the former Fugees frontman and his business partner, Jerry Duplessis, have been compensated over $400,000 in rent, production services and appearance fees from the organization since its creation 12 years ago.
Hugh Locke, the president of the non-profit, had this to say in the charity’s defense: “Wyclef Jean, the founder of Yele Haiti, has never profited from his organization. It’s a shame that during this international emergency, we have had to divert resources away from our response efforts to address these allegations.”
The Smoking Gun also says that last year was the first time that Yele had filed tax returns with the IRS and they only disclosed information about the years, 2005, 2006 and 2009.
“Yele Haiti, originally called the Wyclef Jean Foundation, filed a tax return in 2000 and then suspended activities until 2005 and so was not required by law to file a tax return until it resumed operation,” Locke explained.
Clef, a native and Goodwill Ambassador to the earthquake struck country, has reportedly raised over $2 million in donations in relief funds as of yesterday (January 15). —Max G
Oh, HEEEEEEELLLLLLL NO! why did i just assume that his charity would be the most trustworthy? i hope it's not true. don't quite believe it. one thing is for sure...that texting donation business is a hot ass mess! it sent me a ton of error messages, then sent messages thanking me. from now on, i'm giving online.
Please, Clef been shouting out for Haiti for years. Now it's fashionable for everyone to step forward and donate, they want to point the finger WYCLEF...give me a break. He's been trying to get people to notice the problems in Haiti long before this. UGH! The american media kills me. Now Haiti is a story. Ugh! What about the other charities collecting. Why focus on Wyclef? These people kill me.
@trixie @Ezra_Yisrael1970 @spiderman300 @hotbunny
More U.S. NGOs/charities work in Haiti than any other country. Large established ones work as extensions of the U.S. govt; the media intentionally discredits Wyclef's charity and props ones like the Red Cross, Mercy Corps, etc. The U.S. is using this disaster to create a military presence in Haiti to intimidate Cuba and bring in U.S. corporate businesses, IMO.
exactly as i expected. i do not trust haitian people. think people!! every year organizations and countries have been pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into haiti and there is no prosperity to show for it. their own people steals the money from the needy. i won't donate a penny to haiti until they can prove that they can stand on their own feet. haiti is like a nation of children, always needing to be taken cared of by the rest of the world.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF " THE WHITE MAN" TRYING TO TAKE POWER FROM THE " BLACK MAN". WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? LET ME GUESS, THIS BLACK MAN IS TAKING POWER BY HAVING MONEY GO STRAIGHT TO THE NEEDS OF HIS COUNTRY.rOBERTSON FROM THE 700 IS A JOKE, SAYING THAT THE HAITIANS ARE CURSE BECAUSE THEY SOLD THEIR SOLDS, WELL IF THIS IS THE CASE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA SHOULD BE GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING, THESE EUROPEAN STOLD THE LAND AND BROUGHT DISEASE TO NATIVE AMERICANS, I BET YOU A DISASTE RHAPPEN IN A " MAJORITY" WHITE OR EUORPEAN AREA, THERE WOULD BE NO CRITICISM OR BAD MOUTHING. RACISM ISN'T OVER
there are enough haitian immigrants in this country to donate enough money to their own country. i live in dade county and a local radio station 99jamz was excepting donations at a walmart in a haitian neighborhood. haitians were just walking by not dropping a penny into the boxes while other folks were making donations to their own country. thats a damn shame. if they won't help each other why should we help them? and i know the difference between haitians and other blacks. the haitians always wear haitian attire and speak creole.
Most of the stories on this site I find very silly.. but this story has literally taken MTO to another level of SCUM..
Anyone that questions Wyclef and his YELE organization should get their facts straight.. Anyone who has anything NEGATIVE to say about Wyclef - get your a$$es on a PLANE and fly to HAITI and go help like Wyclef is doing.. but 99% of all you naysayers will sit in the comforts of your home and continue to read this SMUT!!
YELE has been helping HAITI for YEARRRRS - I have yet to see any of these mug slingers take their butts to Haiti on any other day to help out...
MTO Please remove this fake posting, It's not fair to people trying to make a difference. BBB is not or has not ever made any of the above towards this man and his org. you people need to stick to the dumb trashy news and not try to take food out of people 's mouths. Just like you posted that fake ad about the girl that shot the boy in the train station, I'm going to report you guys for this...
Why are you lying stupid MF? Even pammela anderson's breast is more real than this crap. Wyclef Jean has always been giving backk to his country. So stop hating on him what you think you are doing? This is the lamest thing i've ever heard ! FAIL!!!!! His Charity is helping people eveyday in Haiti Don't trust those kind of undershit craps trust official news and politicians and they are all supporting Wyclef's foundation text "YELE" to 501 501 from your cell to give 5$ to the earthquake relief found, 100% go back to this
This is my prediction: like many other poor countries, the U.N. and the U.S. will convince or force that country to take out a loan with the World bank aka the Central Bank and this will allow Haiti to default on their loan, and wahlah the country will be taken over by the US and UN. Watch what I tell you. Soon your will be seeing brochures to take trip over to Haiti and it will be a part of US territory. This is clearly a sign of Weather weaponry. This sh*t was plan as a part of depopulation. To those who may be interested please google Neely Fuller Jr. because this guy in my opinion is phenomenal he comes on the internet radio 365. He talks about how the White man has out smarted people of color. In addition this guy give’s info on how to counter act racism. Most non-profit organizations pocket some of the money they receive from donations. Regardless if Wyclef is a fraud or not he shouldn’t be discredited for trying to help his native citizens.
I don't believe this dumb a$$ post for a second please take it down and stop lying MTO, I am so disappointed in you people. You don't make any sense the BBB are not even fit to make such accusations, please stop lying MTO /, I use the BBB for a lot of different reason and his company is not one lised so please remove this trash a$$ post!!!! Just keep talking about Rihanna
this is all B.S -- All these accusations about wyclef are false and i am very disgusted that someone would even make these accusations..
Wyclef is a great man!! Keep donating to YELEHAITI a true organization that gives 100 % of their donations to the People of Haiti. visit www.yele.or or DOnate $5 by texting the word YELE to 501 501..

@Nofries So true WHAT I CANT UNDERSTAND IS HOW 5,000 SOLDIERS have been deployed in Haiti this week, making arrests already, god knows where they are putting the prisoners.I just saw Bush and Clinton interview, Bush said dont send blanket ,food or water just CASH. MY BLOOD STARTED TO BOIL INSTANLY,Bush was responsible for the previous Prime minster being removed back, to my point couldn't the 5,000 soldiers bring food instead of guns, just like with any other countries the elites make it seems the cities are overcrowded forcing people to live on top of each other making it easier and cheape
cheaper to maintain rather than run electricity to outer areas the people are forced to become dependent on these greedy capitalistic pigs, instead of encouraging the people to cultivate their land in the outer areas,there would not be a food crisis if this happened I hope Haiti does not take out loans to these [EXPLETIVE], most developed countries cant afford to pay debt to the IMF let alone Haiti.GREECE SPAIN AND IRELAND are on the verge of collapse with ICELAND not far behind
SOMETHING IS UP.. I HAVEN'T SEEN WYCLEFF SINCE YESTERDAY. I POSTED A LINK ABOUT AFRICOM WHERE THE ELITES ARE TRYING RECOLONIZE AFRICA. THEY ARE DESPERATE THEY WANT TO WIPE THE SLATE AGAIN CLEAN, AND START AGAIN, THAT'S THE ONLY WAY OUT FOR THEM TO MAKE IT,THERE IS IN HOUSE FIGHTING AMONGST THE ELITES SOME WANT TO CUT AND RUN TO PANAMA, WHILE THE ELDERS WANT TO FIGHT TO THE END, WHAT HAPPEN TO BUSH SENIOR?
@Hotbunny I READ SOME WHERE, CANT REMEMBER THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO CHANGE THE LAWS FOR MORE PRIVACY, I PERSONALLY HOPE THEY DONT. SO WHEN THESE FOLKS GET TRIED FOR MONEY LAUNDERING ON A MASS SCALE WE MIGHT FIND OUT WHERE ALL OUR TAXES WENT AND WHAT MADOFF HAS DONE WITH THE REST OF THE MONEY, IN FACT I ALSO READ THEY ARE PREPARING THE COURTS FOR THE BIGGEST TRIAL IN HISTORY, BRING THESE GUYS IN TO ACCOUNT AS TO WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON IN THE FINANCIAL INDUSTRY, THIS COULD EXPLAIN WHY OBAMA IS ASKING THEM TO PAY THE MONEY BACK,ONLY BLACK BLOGS ARE REPORTING THIS WYCLIFF CLAIM,YET ALL THE WHITE B
@Hotbunny you have a valid point. See the average person doesn’t know that the Clinton’s are Bilderberg members. These elitists have one agenda and that’s “One World Domination”. Due to their selfishness they will go to any extent to do so even if it takes using population control, or weather weaponry. I hate to say this, but U.S and especially the U.N. will reap what they sow.
@HOTBUNNY YOUR 100% RIGHT WHITE FOLKS ARE RALLYING UP THEY HAVE MORE TO LOSE THAN SOME US POOR FOLKS, WHAT WAS THE FIRST THING OBAMA DID WHEN HE CAME INTO POWER, HE TRIED TO ENFORCE GUN CONTROL LMAO THE REDNECKS WENT WILD, I HOPE HILARY CLINTON SEES AND ACKNOWLEDGES WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO SEE A COUNTRY OBLITERATED OUT OF THIS PLANET, LIKE WHAT SHE PLANNED TO DO IN IRAN
YES THEIR SPECIALTY IS PROBLEM ,CHAOS AND SOLUTION WELL THEY ARE IN FOR A BIG SHOCK AS THE BIGGEST LOOTER ALL THOSE COUNTRIES WANT THEIR MONEY OR TREASURIES BACK QUEENIE BETTER START POLISHING HER DIAMOND CRUSTED CROWN JEW-ELLERY SHE HAS STORED IN THE TOWER OF LONDON AS WELL AS THE BIGGEST DIAMOND FOUND IN AFRICA, THE US WAS FORCED TO RETURN GOLD STOLEN FROM SADDAMS PALACE AS WELL AS ARTIFACTS
ENGLAND IS NO BETTER THEY INVESTED MILLIONS INTO DUBAI, WHICH IS SINKING BY THE MINUTE, THIS WAS CLEARLY A RUSH JOB, THE ELITES WERE TRYING TO HIDE AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE. I FEEL SORRY FOR ANY INVESTOR OVER THERE TRYING TO GET OUT OF CONTRACT, THEIR BANKRUPTCY LAW IS DIFFERENT IF YOU DEFAULT YOU GO TO JAIL. WHITES PEOPLE ARE BEING ENCOURAGED TO WALK OUT OF THEIR HOMES IF THEY CANT AFFORD THEIR MORTGAGES IN THE U.S THIS IS THE WAY THEY ARE GETTING BACK AT THE BANKERS WHO SOLD THEM RISKY MORTGAGES, WHY STAY IN A HOUSE WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY $90,000 NOW ITS WORTH 300,00 ITS BETTER TO RECEIVE 7 Y
@Hotbunny Roflmao THEY HAD A GROUP OF WOMEN SINGINS IN THE STREETS, THEY WERE ALMOST TRANCE LIKE YOU COULD SEE THE REPORTER WAS TERRIFIED, HAITI IS IDEAL FOR THE ELITES TO DUMP SWINE FLU VACCINES THEY CANT GET RID OF,THE W.H.O IS BEING INVESTIGATED RIGHT NOW,A LOT OF COUNTRIES ORDERED TO MANY VACCINES FEARING THIS SO CALLED PANDEMIC, THE SAME COUNTRIES NOW WANT THEIR MONEY BACK BUT CANNOT BECAUSE THE PHARMACEUTICAL CO, HAVE A NO GET OUT CLAUSE
I hope this is false...I tried to help out by donating to his charity, because if I donated to Red Cross, they wouldve never seen the money.
I shouldve just donated food,water,clothing
(This happened to my city in Katrina..Two FEMA employees stole $721,000 of Money Donated To Help Us All Rebuild...They JUST Caught Them Last Week SMH...)
l would love to donate but this is why I don't.
During 9/11 billions poured in for the families of the 9/11, but none of those families saw that money. So where did those billions go. Charities are running scams. Especially when only 5 cents or 1 cent of every dollar goes towards helping those in need. If you really want to donate to a reputable charity, consumer reports had a report one time on the charities and how much from each dollar actually goes towards aid. Do the research before you give your hard earned money away.
FettiGyrlSherri exactly why people should research. This is why I like Brad Pitt so much. He really stepped up to help Katrina victims. The money donated to Brad and his foundation...you can actually see it in the homes they built etc etc. That is what you need to see when you donate. Is your money doing what it was intended to do. Beware of charities folks. These days anyone can start one.
co-sign hotbunny well said i was JUST telling my co-workers right before this earthquake happened NOT to get no h1n1 shot that sheet will make u sterile so u can"t reproduce or may mess your kids up if u do reproduce my daugjter was JUST sick and they wanted to know if we wanted her to get the h1n1 shot i ws like NO THANKS lol
continued but anyway that"s what they do they start these man made diseases ala a.i.d.s.,swine flu,bird flu etc for population control and then they offer u "vacines" to "help" y when that sheet be str8 poison yall need to try to find the book behold a pale horse by william h. cooper dude went DEEP in rhat book curious where u from?@hotbunny
ATTENTION: BLACK PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE THIS GARBAGE. THESE REPORTS ARE NOTHING BUT ARYAN WHITE SUBHUMAN LIES!!!!
IF WE DONATE TO WYCLEF THE MONEY WILL GO TO HELP THE HAITIANS. THE WHITE MAN WANTS US TO DONATE TO THE RED CROSS SO THEY CAN STEAL ALL OF THE MONEY. DOES HURRICANE KATRINA RING A BELL? F__K THIS SHYT.CONTINUE TO DONATE TO WYCLEF.
why yall think autism is so common now? they putting sheet in our food to fugg us and our reproductive systems up! slow kids were not all that common when i was growing up now u see them EVERYWHERE autism off the dayum chain this sheet is planned BIG TIME o.k. yall be safe watch out for the bullsheet back to the game now. PEACE!!
MTO how can you report his organization as a scam when even before a disaster even struck he was like the only dude "ALWAYS HOLLARING ABOUT HAITTI" ALWAYS. He brought Angelina Jolie and her representation to Haiti before an earthquake or a Hurricane. When Katrina happend Where was the Red Cross?? I dont know it seems like the Red Cross gets a lot of money and I have yet to ever see where it goes. All your report is saying is that they filed their taxes late. That did not mean that they did not provide help for Haiti because we all know Wyclef provided Awareness.
See thats a damn shame i want to dontate so bad but i figured people are greedy and if i sent in any money the people who need it wont get it,i donated to feed the children a few times but now they harass me all the time which makes me think that those children didnt receive the aid that they really need.Idk what to do i wish i can go over there and help and give them cash.Other than redcross if anyone knows were i can donate money to a legit charity plz let me know!Money hungry people that do shady [EXPLETIVE] to get money life will suffer in the end true story!
I think its horrible of MTO to imply that Wyclef would rip off the victims of the Haiti earthquake
I think Clef is arrogant and I'm not really a fan of his but I can tell that he genuinely loves Haiti
And this has the potential to discourage people from donating, shame on you MTO, theres enough red tape & bullshiit going on while people are DYING in the process, this didn't happen in the Pacific*READ*
You can still donate people, its not too late to HELP HAITI
Irresponsible journalism EAT A DCIK MTO
Why is the aid taking so long? Just like the police, there's always a delay in response when disaster strikes and you are a person of color. I never play the race card, but this is abundantly clear after the latest events A team of doctors were pulled out for "security reasons"...in the middle of all that turmoil...the general that helped out during katrina said that dr's are never pulled in disaster, it trumps security...Like WTF? There were no dr's there to begin with and you take the few that are? Obama whats really hood?
The trifling negroes have no end. Why is it that Black folks are so good at figuring out reasons to to do nothing and ways to get stuck.
First of all, the Red Cross books are posted on the net and 90% I repeat 90%, I repeat again for those of ya'll who struggled in high school, 90% of the funds donated to the Red Cross goes DIRECTLY TO AID ASSISTANCE.
SECOND, there is NO Proof that Wyclef Jeans organization is committing fraud of any kind.
Third, if you don't want to text, go online and donate like I did or put it in the mail.
Trifling asses...
some of yall motherphuckers are so "black-washed" that if u saw the sh1t on tape and heard the audio you would say that the "white-man" set it up. thats slave mentality. educate before you specualte. i dont know about this and i dont give a phuck. but just like when i commentend on the pastor saying the natives of haiti sold the land to the devil, yall didnt know that had been circualting for years but jumped down that mans throat for speaking a common theory. dont be mad at me, im just the other side of the pillow.....
Money and greed can make a person do some ugly things.
Not to mention, I get the point about a foundation with experience needing to handle this. Those people need help in the worst way and an amateur shouldnt be up to bat.
there shouldnt be 60 something organizations anyway. hell, if it's all going to haiti, they should bond together for the greater good and help more people.
That is [EXPLETIVE] don't understand this could be the end haitti there is no time for controversy it's time to help the black population could be on the rise again because this really cripple them Africa has nothing on haitti when it comes to poverty. When I was there I had friends who only ate on Sundays.
@choclatdrop "there shouldnt be 60 something organizations anyway. hell, if it's all going to haiti, they should bond together for the greater good and help more people."
Too true, but one reason so many charity organizations exist in Haiti is because for years the U.S. crippled Haiti's government to prevent it from working to help and protect its people. This goes back to colonial powers not recognizing Haiti's successful 1791 slave revolt against French rule.
victims received minimal amts of money n support. Bush who let a american city drown n sent n blackwater troops to kill n mame while ppl died n the streets is helming this effort along w/ the marines n the red cross n unicef. these ppl n organizations have done nothin n the past to help so y would u take there word. think ppl please
...THE "RED-CROOKS" RAISED BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AFTER 9/11 AND YET WHEN IT CAME DOWN TO CLAIMS - THOUSANDS WERE DENIED HEALTH INSURANCE, WORKERS COMPENSATION CLAIMS, DEATH BENEFIT CLAIMS AND UNEMPLOYMENT CLAIMS,
I WOULDN'T DONATE A DIME TO THE "RED-CROOKS", I'M WATCHING IMAGES OF THE HAITIAN'S AND THEY'RE WAY TOO MANY WITHOUT THE BASIC NECESSITIES OF SURVIVAL...
...WHERE'S THE "RED-CROOKS"...I GUESS THE SAME PLACE THEY WERE UP UNTIL THE 5th DAY AFTER HURRICANE "KATRINA" HIT NEW-ORLEANS....
DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE. BUNCH OF BS. WYCLEF A HUMANITARIAN & ACTIVIST FOR HAITI, HIS COUNTRY, WHERE HE WAS ORIGINALLY BORN & PROUD TO REPRESENT. HE WONT DO SUCH THING TO HIS PEOPLE. THIS MAN HAS GOOD INTENTIONS & THE MEDIA & OTHER PEOPLE TALKING [EXPLETIVE] IS TRYING TAKE YOUR FOCUS & ATTENTION FROM THE GOOD TO THE BAD. THIS IS A REAL ORGANIZATION, HE HAS HAD IT BEFORE THE EARTHQUAKE EVEN TOOK PLACE. DONT BELIEVE THE BS. STILL DONATE TO YELE & HELP THE PEOPLE OF HAITI. THIS IS A VERY SAD & DISTURBING THAT SOMEONE WOULD EVEN COME OUT & SAY ANYTHING.[link to external website removed] http;//twitter.com/1_&_Only_Dina
I think I'd rather donate to his organization than da red cross. After hearing da commercial on t.v. about there donations to Haiti, they had da nerve to state that the $10 would be used for donations to Haiti & "towatds other relief efforts." WTF..... how they gone try to use da tragedy in Haiti to collect donations for it & then use some of it for other relief efforts. NOW THEY'RE DA ONES RUNNING DA F'ING SCAMS!!
