I’ve never been a big fan of Clef, the man voice really irritates me, lol however I always love reading about his humanitarian background. Clef has always been known to be very big in giving back to his country men but what the hell is this I’m hearing? Should we be concern clef?

Page Six is reporting that:

Yele Haiti (Wyclef Jean Foundation) which is Former Fugees member Wyclef Jean’s charity aims to address educational, environmental and emergency-relief issues in his native Haiti. It has a slick Web site and financial support from Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie but has not filed a US tax form since 2000. An insider at the charity told The Post that where the money goes in Haiti is a mystery, other than that part of the haul went to purchase a television station in Port-au-Prince. Charity President Hugh Locke said, “We are in arrears in our filing.” He said that large donations go directly to projects in Haiti, where the organization is registered as a charity. He said the missing IRS documents would be filed by the end of the year. The forms are required to allow them to receive donations that can be tax deductible and to avoid paying taxes on their donations. The charity also has not completed the required New York state registration, according to Attorney General’s Office records. Meanwhile, Jean owes the state of New Jersey $183,172 for personal income tax, a sum Jean’s spokesman said last month the singer was in the process of paying..

I hope that paperwork is filed asap, I know a lot of Haitian who are probably waiting at the chance to start some rumors or ex him out the CD Christmas list.
