In light of the recent earthquake in Haiti, a collaboration of famous musicians created a new rendition of Michael Jackson and Lionel Richey’s We Are the World. Artists such as Jennifer Hudson, Josh Groban, Miley Cyrus, and Lil Wayne were a part of this project. The song is being sold on iTunes and all of the proceeds are going towards the reconstruction of Haiti. With so much damage done to the country of Haiti, it is a miracle that so many different organizations are willing to help in any capacity that they can. It is amazing that with today’s technology, we can help those in need by simply buying a song on iTunes. These celebrities hold more power than they will ever realize. Their ability to reach out to the rest of the world and make a difference is one of the most influential parts of their jobs. I hope that everyone finds a way in their hearts to help Haiti in whatever way they see fit.
