TBT: Actress Demi Moore Visit To Haiti

These pictures are from Demi Moore’s visit to Haiti in April 2010:

Demi Moore smiles as she clutches the hand of a young victim of the Haiti disaster. The toddler, known only as Shakyna, presumably had no idea who her immaculately groomed visitor was. She looked equally bemused by Moore’s cameraphone, which she had a brief play with. But within hours, Moore’s meeting with her, and another child, David, was made public to millions across the world.

The actress posted the snap she took of herself and David on her Twitter internet site along with a message reading: ‘Yes, he was burned and lost 3 fingers but his joyous spirit was untouched!’ Messages of support soon poured in from ‘followers’ of her site.

One exclaimed: ‘You’re an inspiration’. Another commented on Demi’s appearance: ‘You are looking great!! both of you. He is very sweet.’ A third said: ‘Now this is what I do like about you Demi, your compassion for children.’ Moore, 47, reached for her mobile to record her encounter with the youngster while visiting the paediatric malnutrition ward of St Damien’s children’s hospital in the earthquake-ravaged island’s capital, Port-au-Prince. She is among a party of A-listers, including Susan Sarandon, Gerard Butler and Ben Stiller, who have left their luxury homes to visit the island on behalf of Artists for Peace and Justice.  – Source
