Support Disaster Relief in Haiti

Local Organizations

On January 12th, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti, collapsing buildings and affecting thousands. It was the strongest earthquake ever to hit the region.

 

Here are a few ways to donate and help out:

 

  • Hope for Haiti Telethon:  CBC, CTV and Global will host a one-hour, commercial-free, cross-network special event on Friday Jan 22nd.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Gov. Gen. Michaëlle Jean are scheduled to deliver messages to Canadians, while the Tragically Hip and K'naan will perform live.

  • Prominent Canadians from music, film, television and sport to appear on the special include:

      Musical acts Nelly Furtado, Measha Brueggergosman, Justin Bieber, Céline Dion, Sarah McLachlan, Barenaked  Ladies, David Foster, Chantal Kreviazuk, Raine Maida and Simple Plan.
Directors James Cameron, Jason Reitman and Norman Jewison.

Humanitarian Craig Kielburger.
The money raised during the telethon will be distributed equally amongst a coalition of 10 large Canadian non-governmental organizations — including World Vision Canada, Canadian Red Cross Society, UNICEF Canada, Oxfam Canada and Save the Children Canada — with the funds exclusively earmarked for Haiti.
