Não costumo falar de Arcade Fire aqui, mas é por uma boa causa. O grupo, que há muito preza pelo país caribenho recém-atingido por um terremoto, escreve em seu site sobre a tragédia no Haiti:

Friends,
Haiti needs your help in her darkest hour.
We just got off the phone with our friends at Partners in Health.
Most of the medical infrastructure in Port-au-Prince is down.
Since Partners in Health’s clinics are in situated the surrounding areas and haven’t been damaged, they are mobilizing their resources towards the capital, setting-up field hospitals to treat the injured on the ground.
Also, Paul Farmer (the founder of PIH) is at the UN and has access to the best information on where to direct the money… so for the moment if you want to help, we suggest sending funds to: www.pih.org
+ donate.pih.org/page/contribute/haiti_earthquake?source=earthquake&subsource=homepage
Please be generous as time is of the essence.
love,
Win and Regine
