Ever since the 7.0 magnitude earthquake ravaged Haiti in 2010. Wyclef  has been the face of the organization, spearheading fundraising efforts that brought in nearly $2 million for earthquake victims in one day.  However Clefs foundation has been plagued with bad accounting practices and years of delinquent tax bills, and other shady practices.  Because of that after seven years, and $16 million raised, Yéle Hati closed in 2012.
