Wyclef Jean is an American Haitian who back in 2005 started the Yele Haiti Foundation. This man is a muscian and he was featured in Shakira's hips don't lie song. For the first few years of this Charity it did a lot of good work by helping the Haiti kids get scholarships to schools. In just two years they provided almost 7,000 for kids in just two years. After the earthquake in 2010 they wanted to try to produce at least 6,800 scholarships for kids. But according to some sources the Yele Gaiti foundation did not give all of the money they raised to help the earthquake victims. They raised $16 million and only $5.1 million was actually used to help the Haitians. That is only a third of the money raised was used.
