Wyclef Jean unveiled a new charitable partnership with clothing and footwear company Timberland during a Thursday Advertising Week Q&A session conducted by Billboard editorial director Bill Werde at the Times Center in New York.
For every pair of Timberland boots sold, $2 will be donated to Jean's Yele Haiti Foundation, which will help aid reforestation in that country. "I really think that we're going to sell a whole lot of boots and I really think we're going to plant a whole lot of trees in Haiti," Jean said during the afternoon session.
