Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief is a charity telethon that was held on 22 January 2010 from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, 23 January 2010 from 1 a.m. to 3 a.m. UTC. The telethon is set to be the most widely distributed telethon in history.[1] Three charity concerts will be staged in London, Los Angeles and New York City. There will also be live reports from Haiti.[citation needed]

The telethon was announced by MTV Networks in the United States on January 15, 2010, three days after the 2010 Haiti earthquake struck on January 12 and claimed the lives of at least 70,000 people. The event is one of a number of humanitarian responses to the earthquake. The telethon is patterned after the form begun with the 2001 America: A Tribute to Heroes program and continued with the 2005 Shelter from the Storm: A Concert for the Gulf Coast.

The telethon will raise funds for Haiti relief, to be split evenly between the following organizations with humanitarian operations in Haiti: the World Food Programme, UNICEF, the Red Cross, Oxfam, the Yéle Haiti Foundation, Partners In Health and the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.[2]

Participants

Wyclef Jean will host the concert in New York City, with George Clooney in Los Angeles and Anderson Cooper in Haiti.[citation needed]

Rihanna revealed on 21 January, during the Norwegian-Swedish talkshow Skavlan, that she will perform a new song titled "Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour)", together with Jay-Z and U2's The Edge and Bono at the telethon in London.[3]
