George W. Bush and Bill Clinton to visit Haiti

“Presidents Clinton and Bush will meet with Haitians, the government of Haiti, and others providing assistance to earthquake survivors, with the goal of further establishing long-term recovery and rebuilding efforts,” a statement released Thursday said.

The two former presidents head the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, a relief organization set up in the wake of the devastating January 27 7.0-magnitude quake that leveled the Haitian capital Port-au-Prince, killing at least 220,000 people.

The pair were tapped by US President Barack Obama to lead high-profile fundraising campaigns and oversee long-term reconstruction and relief efforts in the country, the poorest nation in the western hemisphere.
