Win Butler of Arcade Fire and his lovely band mate and wife Regine Chassagne are going to match your charity donations dollar for dollar. If you are willing to help Kanpe, the Haiti Relief fund they'll see your offer.
For your efforts they will also get you a signed thank you postcard. Why on Earth you would covet that is beyond me. Win and Regine are not exactly Sonny and Cher and well their audience is too hip to know what a pen is anyway.
Kanpe is a charitable organization working towards eliminating poverty in Haiti. You'll recall the band was in Haiti banging on garbage pails in an attempt to be at one with the people and instead made a media circus, well done.
Also, just so we know the deal is legit, Butler put his own obnoxious quote out there to sort of 'Arcade Fire' the whole process
“For any silicone valley jerks who might try to bankrupt us, let’s put the upper limit at $300,000,” Butler wrote on the band’s website. “Have a great holiday!”
There is a jerk here.. just not sure if they're from Silicon Valley.
