Usain Bolt Donates $10 million to devastated Haiti

Atleast 800 dead and still counting in Haiti...Days after the country of Haiti was devastated by Hurricane Matthew, comes news of at least some relief. Olympic gold medalist Usain Bolt, made a superhero move in an attempt to help the beleaguered residents of the nation. 


Known as the fastest man on earth due to his speedy feet, Bolt’s heart is also lightning fast when it comes to putting his money where his mouth and helping those in need. He has donated $10 million to relief efforts in #Haiti. According to source 

Bolt’s donation will provide needed homes

The Usain Bolt foundation is primarily known for helping children around the world to better their circumstances through educational and cultural opportunities. But after #Hurricane Matthew devastated Haiti, especially the southern region, the big-hearted athletic superstar decided to donate the money through his foundation to help facilitate construction ventures.


Many times governments and various aid organizations have the desire to help, but their efforts are hampered or delayed by bureaucratic red tape and pages of regulations. The beauty of individual donations is that they can often be expedited, as well as targeted for the areas that the donor specifies. While Bolt’s generosity will be used in whatever capacity is the most needed at first, he intends for the majority of it to go to aid Haiti’s vulnerable infrastructure.
