Republicans and Democrats (and everyone in between) unite! Former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush have joined forces in leading a major fundraising campaign to aid the Haitian people, also known as the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.
Immediately following the earthquake in Haiti at the beginning of the year, President Obama asked the former American leaders to come together to not only assist Haiti in a time of economic strife and social turmoil, but to rebuild it back even better. Now that the initial efforts of immediate relief and emergency assistance have come to a close, round two of the fund’s tenacious efforts have now kicked in!
The Clinton Bush Haiti Fund’s newfound primary focus has now shifted to getting the country back on it’s feet, but healthier and stronger than before. In order to make steps in this direction, the fund now is targeting longer-term reconstruction, job creation, and the promotion of economic opportunity.
Both former presidents have pinpointed that the key to Haiti’s successful comeback is through its economy. Therefore, the aim of the fund is to promote an inclusive, diversified, environmentally-conscious and competitive Haitian economy that is decentralized and is easily integrated into the region. Furthermore, they seek to build an economy that motivates yet captures the entrepreneurial spirit of the Haitians in order to allow individuals, families, communities, and enterprises reach their fullest potential.
When it comes to taking sides as to whether who is helping out more, the choice simply doesn't exist. You see, helping others is universal and doesn't have any bias or pass judgement. The Clinton Bush Haiti Fund is trumping invisible political borders by uniting two American leaders, who share opposing beliefs in how to lead, but certainly not how to help. Have YOU helped save the world today?
