Wyclef Jean has revealed plans to build a new school in Haiti.
The native of Haiti and former Fugees star said that he hopes the facility will help local youngsters to achieve their dreams.
According to HollyScoop, Jean will call on friends like Matt Damon and Angelina Jolie to assist him in raising funds. The singer has worked with Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt on his Yele Haiti charity in the past and offered to babysit for them
“I want to start working on building a school. It’s going to be called the Yele Center. Hopefully I can start the fundraiser in six months, and I have the model,” Jean said.
“I want something that’s sustainable for kids. One person got me out of Haiti, my parents got me to America. I took the dream back to Haiti. If I could just save one kid with that school, and get the next Wyclef Jean or the next Shakira, I’ll be satisfied.”
