Accepting charitable donations for pay is morally repugnant, particularly if you don't voluntarily inform the donors that you're getting a cut.

At least he did more good than evil even if his motives were selfish.
I mean, hell, even if he kept 75% and gave 25% to haiti, at least some money would be going there. Any money going to haiti to help them is good, no?
I think people are exaggerating the awfulness of this. Didn't this guy do some work? So, he got paid for the work and the majority of what he "earned" goes to Haiti.
he got 25% of what he made
the organization got 75%
I am not sure whether or not he informed the people donating he was going to take a cut, but as i said before, any money going to Haiti is good.
