That's the question so many of you are asking," said telethon co-host George Clooney. "Why should we give more? Why should we believe our help can re-build a country where 80 percent of its people live on less than $2 a day, more than 3 million go without clean water and 1 in 3 children dies before the age of 5. If Haiti struggled so much before, then why should we have faith that we can make a difference now. This is a tragedy that reaches across all borders, all boundaries and demands our attention, our help and our compassion as fellow beings. ... This is an opportunity to help a neighbor in desperate need and to do it with swiftness, expertise, generosity and love that resides in the best of who we are."
