P&G also partnered with BET to present a Haiti benefit concert on February 5. P&G's Children's Safe Drinking Water (CSDW) was a beneficiary of donations from the fundraising event to help provide even more safe drinking water for victims of the earthquake. The concert - "SOS Saving Ourselves – Help for Haiti" – was a nationally televised concert and celebrity telethon supporting several organizations providing immediate relief in Haiti, including Yéle Haiti, CARE, Project Medishare and CSDW. The official donation total has not yet been released.
