Yéle, Wth Fear? ~Citizen K
~Wyclef Jean's Haitian Charity Comes Under Scrutiny~NPR~Neda Ulaby: Yele Haiti has also been criticized because its Web site claims 100 percent of donations now are going to earthquake relief. That's true, says Locke; overhead costs are paid from its base budget.
And because this is not just a story about dollars and cents, I asked Locke if he had lost staff in the earthquake. This is how he responded. (Soundbite of labored breathing)

~Video of Wycleff Jean discusses this smear campaign.
~Editilla notellas~Also please catch Citizen K's Sunday Funnies. It has become a regular thing for us to hang here on your New Orleans Ladder, but he did this post on Haiti Philanthropy that we felt compelled to go with first as we were so busy last night watching Our Boys march to Glory!
I have moved into a bad, yet familiar place emotionally as the situation in Haiti grows ever more vicious with every passing hour. Haiti is no longer a "nation" but millions of severely injured, dying and dead human beings.
Haiti will remain a Culture Enduring.
But, there is no Nation of Haiti this sixth day after the earthquake, only a shifting number of survivors, just people in crisis Sinn Féin. Om Mani Padme Hum
