Wyclef Jean has signed with Timberland to become its newest “Earthkeeper Hero.” The musician/singer and the outdoor footwear and apparel company have partnered on a U.S. campaign to promote environmental and humanitarian efforts in Haiti.

Wyclef and Timberland have created “Yéle Haiti boots” made from recycled and organic materials, which will be available in late November. Yéle Haiti, a grassroots organization Jean started in 2005 to fund reforestation efforts in Haiti, will receive a $2 donation for every pair sold.
