To provide much needed water and other assistance to survivors of the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12, NewCom joined several Miami-area businesses to sponsor a benefit concert featuring performances by prominent Haitian artists.

An estimated 13,000 people packed Oak Grove Park in Miami on January 23 for The H₂O for Haiti Benefit Concert, which was broadcast live on area TV and radio stations. The benefit was a huge success, resulting in contributions of more than 88,500 bottles of water, fourteen containers of clothing and a crate loaded with food items. In addition, the benefit raised nearly $100,000 in monetary donations - including $90,000 from event sponsors - which was used to purchase drinking water bound for Haiti.
