HOMETOWN HERO
This is the heart of Cite Soleil, which is near the school where we installed the computers. Everyone here knew Wyclef - he's their idol. When a group of kids spotted him, we stopped our car and got out; then they picked him up and carried him over their heads. It was so beautiful. He is their hope and the light for the whole of Haiti.
