Jimmy Buffett Visits Haiti
Posted on 03.05.10 9:27AM under Charity work, Jimmy Buffett News, charity
After the terrible earthquake struck the country of Haiti Jimmy Buffett was deeply moved to help the Caribbean nation any way he could. Days after the tragedy Buffett posted a video on his website urging all Parrotheads to donate to help the cause. Buffett went a step further earlier this week flying his seaplane to Haiti to deliver tents to the homeless in Port-au-Prince. U.S. embassy security gave Jimmy a tour of the devastated city’s downtown. Buffett has been to Haiti before in 1994 and it had to be hard to city in its current state compared to his last visit. Jimmy told the press of his visit declaring “Haiti, is something worth saving to me.”. As many as 1.2 million Haitians lost their homes because of the earthquake and are at high risk of catching Malaria living in such conditions. If you have anything to spare please make a donation to the Haiti Relief Fund.
