AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MC Endeavors, Inc. (Pink Sheets: MSMY) (notice no "MCE" here)announced that its Director U.S. Ambassador Lewis Lucke is traveling to Haiti to survey the reconstruction programs after last week’s announcement that musician Michel Martelly had won the Presidential Election with 67.57% of the votes.

“Hundreds of thousands of destitute earthquake victims are still living in squalid tent and tarpaulin camps clamoring for jobs and housing, and Martelly will have to work closely with private local and international donors to ensure prompt delivery and effective use of $10 billion in foreign aid.”

Ambassador Lucke stated, “As President, Martelly will face the huge challenge of trying to rebuild a Caribbean Country that was already in poverty status well before the January 12, 2010 earthquake which killed more than 300,000 people, made more than 1.5 million homeless, and bludgeoned the fragile economy.” The Ambassador went on to state that, “Hundreds of thousands of destitute earthquake victims are still living in squalid tent and tarpaulin camps clamoring for jobs and housing, and Martelly will have to work closely with private local and international donors to ensure prompt delivery and effective use of $10 billion in foreign aid.”

MC Endeavors CEO Tim Algier emphasized that, “Ambassador Lucke served as the U.S. Response Coordinator for the Haiti earthquake, leading the United States’ $1.0 billion to date relief and recovery program, and having him on our reconstruction team is very valuable to us. His contacts and international experience will give us the opportunity to really make a difference in both addressing the homeless situation and helping to improve the Haitian economy.”
