Ensemble pour Haïti ("Together for Haiti") was a French Canadian telethon that was held on January 22, 2010 at 8 PM ET / 9 PM AT. The special, a relief concert to help those affected by the 2010 Haiti earthquake, was simulcast on Radio-Canada, TVA, V, Télé-Québec, LCN, MusiquePlus, MusiMax and TV5, as well as on the Espace Musique, NRJ, RockDétente, Boom FM and Corus Québec radio networks. The event raised approximately CDN$6.65 million.[1]

Viewers were encouraged to make a donation during the event, which will benefit the Canadian Red Cross and CECI ("Centre d’étude et de coopération internationale" (Canadian Centre for International Studies and Cooperation)).
