Shakira Was In Haiti, She Will Help Rebuild Ecole Elie Dubois

Singer Shakira was in Haiti over the weekend and she did a lot more than watch Haitian school students do the Wakka Wakka, Shakira donated $400,000 to help rebuild Elie Dubois high school in downtown Port-au-Prince.

Yes she did...

And then she spend the rest of the afternoon watching the students do the Wakka Wakka... Haitian style!

It must have been fun watching these young Haitian talents trying to impress their idol...

About Ecole Elie Dubois...

Not too far from the National Palace in Haiti is Ecole Elie Dubois, an institution that has been educating young Haitian minds since 1913.

Ecole Elie Dubois was named after Haiti national education Minister, François-Xavier Elie Dubois. It started out as an all girl vocational boarding school run by La Congregation des Filles de Marie (Filles De Marie Paridaens).

Elie Dubois high school suffered severe damages during the January 12 2010 Haiti earthquake. Reconstruction of the school has already started.
