In January 2010, the devastating earthquake in Haiti prompted a global response, leading to the organization of the 'Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief' telethon. This event was spearheaded by prominent figures such as George Clooney and Wyclef Jean, aiming to raise funds for the urgent humanitarian needs in Haiti. Among the many celebrities who participated, Beyoncé stood out not only for her powerful performance but also for her significant financial contribution to the relief efforts. Her involvement extended beyond the telethon as she was named the official face of the limited edition 'Fashion For Haiti' T-shirt, created by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). This initiative aimed to raise additional funds for the ongoing recovery efforts in Haiti, showcasing the fashion industry's commitment to social responsibility. Beyoncé's participation and advocacy highlighted the importance of collective action in times of crisis, inspiring many to contribute to the cause and support the Haitian community in their time of need.
