Carrie Underwood heads to Haiti for charity trip
Country star Carrie Underwood has embarked on a trip to Haiti as part of a children's charity mission.
The Blown Away hitmaker joined forces with officials from the non-profit Danita's Children organization, which rescues and provides support for orphaned children and kids in poverty, and headed to the Caribbean nation earlier this week (begs16Jun14) to lend a hand at the group's medical center.
Underwood has yet to share details about her trip with fans, but
Nashville, Tennessee resident Rhae Lauren revealed the singer's
involvement on Tuesday (17Jun14), when she tweeted a photo of the
star with a group of volunteers on a "dental mission trip".
In the accompanying caption, she wrote, "The girls of the trip
getting ready to cross the D.R. (Dominican Republic)/Haiti boarder
this morning. Excited for our first day. So proud of everyone and
how much we were able to accomplish! @danitaschildren #haiti
#dentalmissiontrip (sic)".
