After her donation of $500’000, Jennifer will host a Haiti benefit for AmeriCares, one of the organizations that Jennifer chose for her generous donation. As for when this benefit will take place, all we know right now is that it will be sometime at the end of this month. It will be a benefit screening of the Oscar-nominated movie The Last Station, starring Helen Mirren and Christopher Plummer. On that note a congratulations to both actors for the Academy Award nomination. According to E!’s Marc Malkin, this is what it says on Jennifer’s invitations:
“AmeriCares delivered nearly $10 million in lifesaving medical aid for earthquake survivors in Haiti. They have a longstanding commitment to the people of Haiti and will continue to send relief in the days, weeks, months and years ahead.”
Ticket prices are somewhere between $100 and $50’000. This movie night also includes a cocktail party after the screening with the director of The Last Station, Michael Hoffman.

The devastating earthquake that hit Haiti on Tuesday, January 12th has left people helpless and in desperate need. Times are tough for all of us but even the smallest effort or donation, when multiplied by huge numbers of people banning together in a common cause, can turn this horrendous tragedy into hope for thousands.
On Friday the January 22 the “Hope for Haiti Now” telethon will be broadcast live and commercial-free at 8 ET/PT and 7:00 p.m. CT on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, CNN, BET, The CW, HBO, MTV, VH1 and CMT in the US and on MTV UK at 1am (GMT) on January 23.
