John Travolta put his own Boeing 707 jetliner to good use once again on Monday. The Associated Press reported that the actor piloted his jet from Florida to Haiti with four tons of food and medical supplies for the earthquake victims. This is his second trip to aid in the relief effort.
Travolta also brought doctors and Scientology ministers to help in the relief. According to Pop Eater, the Scientologists have “irked" people, as the “Church of Scientology has been accused of capitalizing on tragedies in the past.”
Nonetheless, Travolta’s aid is much appreciated to the devastated country. The earthquake has killed over 150,000 people, and left hundreds of thousands of people injured and living in the streets.
"We have the ability to actually help make a difference in the situation in Haiti and I just can't see not using this plane to help," Travolta said. He hopes his effort inspires others to do what they can to help.
