Irish hip-hop MC Messiah J is undertaking a sponsored walk next week to raise money for a Haitian children's charity.

Starting on Monday, he will walk from Galway to Dublin (about 230km) in a week. "It means so much to me that I choose the right charity and one that will be able to make the most impact on the ground on the island," he said. See www.galwaydublinhaiti.blogspot.com for more.
