Wednesday night, Shakira, the Colombian singer, will perform featured alongside many artists to the Olympic Stadium Felix Sanchez in Santo Domingo as part of the Pop Festival.
Thursday around noon, the interpreter of "Hips Don't Lie" will travel to Haiti accompanied by businessman George Nader, Luis Alberto Moreno, President of the Interamerican Development Bank (IDB) and the journalist Colombian Julio Sánchez Cristo.
The famous singer, who has already made a trip to Haiti after the earthquake to assess the situation in person, will submit, on behalf of her foundation Pies Descalzos, [which funds school construction in several countries of Latin America], a gift of $ 800,000 for the construction of a school in Haiti [according to the latest informations that reach us, this fund is for the reconstruction of the School Elie Dubois, a girls school built in 1913 in Port-au-Prince and run by nuns].
