“I was honored to show my support when they asked me to join them on this important humanitarian trip which also gave them the opportunity to experience the beauty underneath the devastation my country and its people have had to face. It’s crucial for me to do all I can to raise awareness and help Haiti get through this tough time,”Jean said in a statement.
Jean was invited after many years of working to bring hope back to Haiti, a country that is one of the poorest in the world after suffering from devastating storms and more.
