After Bridgestone Tires who donated more than $75,000 to help with relief efforts in Haiti and the Indianapolis Speedway who donated $10,000, MotoGP rider Jorge Lorenzo has gone on line to help Intermon Oxfam raise funds for Haitian earthquake survivors.
“Hi, Jorge Lorenzo.
Like all of you I am extremely shocked with the images of the earthquake in Haiti.
Before this, Haiti was already one of the poorest countries of America and one of the poorest in the world.
So I would like to ask for help! Intermon Oxfam needs your donation to respond to this humanitarian crisis.
The Haitians are in need and cannot wait.
”.
