Wyclef Jean Defends Yele Haiti Foundation’s Finances
Haitian-American singer Wyclef Jean held a press conference in New York on Monday to defend against accusations that he has profited from his charity Yele Haiti.
Since the massive earthquake that struck Haiti last Tuesday, Jean has called on the public to text ”YELE” to 501501 to donate $5 to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund, which has raised over $2 million in just days, according to the Associated Press.
“Yele’s books are open and transparent. We have been given a clean bill of health by an external auditor every year since we started,” Jean told reporters.
He denied all accusations that he personally benefited from Yele Haiti, and pointed out that he gave $1 million of his own money to the charity.
He referred all further questions on finances to the Hugh Locke, the president of the foundation, saying, “My people are dying and I have to go back to the ground in a few days for a mission relief.”
This was the second time in three days Jean has defended the charity. He posted a video on YouTube on Saturday saying he had just returned from Haiti to face an “attack on my integrity and my foundation Yele Haiti.” In a rambling explanation, he said Yele Haiti is an NGO he set up to address his native country’s needs. He ended the video with another appeal for $5 donations in response for the “state of emergency” in Haiti and expressing gratitude for global aid to the country.

Hey this is somewhat of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It will be interesting to see how severely this school of phishermen will be punished. In 2005, a UK pair of electronic anglers were sentenced–one for six years, the other for four–for laundering $10.3 million in today’s U.S. dollars for their felonious endeavors. In 2008, a West Haven, Conn. man was hit with a seven year prison sentence for bilking $400,000 from AOL uses with a phishing scam. And earlier this year, a Minneapolis judge slapped a phisher with an 8.5 year expense free vacation in the Big House for a phishing con that garnered the perp $700,000 over a seven year period. Although sentencing appears to be all over the board, I can’t see the members of this crew getting–at least in the United States–less than eight years a piece for their crooked behavior.
