In the end, there’s no substitute for doing your own research.
Research your organization. So which charity/platform did you choose when you gave to Haiti?
The Mobile Giving Foundation took Yele’s donations, and since Yele has been dissolved as a corporation multiple times by the state of Florida, and has an “office” in the corner of Wyclef Jean’s “studio kitchen,” for “$2,600 per month” and Jean took “$100,000″ in payment “to do a performance at Yele’s event”, according to Gawker , I do
