"Kanpe" Launched to Help Put an End to Poverty in Haiti

 

Canadian sensation "Arcade Fire" and famous Haitian band "RAM" played in Quebec City on Tuesday to celebrate the official launch of Kanpe, which means "stand up" in Haitian Creole. The Canadian NGO will help end poverty in Haiti through two Haitian organizations Partners in Health (Zanmi Lasante) and Fonkoze. To read more about the concert and Kanpe, click the links below:
