Gary White and Matt Damon of water.org just formally announced a new commitment to extend their great work around water and sanitation to Haiti.

Haiti which has suffered several hurricanes recently has had particular trouble bringing clean water to rural communities. Water.org will commit to helping bring water to a minimum of 50,000 people by investing at least 2 million dollars in work with local NGO’s.

We’ll have more on this and President Obama who will be addressing the meeting shortly.

UPDATE: Here’s video of the entire opening plenary.
