Despite the overwhelming devastation of the Haiti earthquake, the world has come together across oceans, borders and sectors to help the relief and recovery efforts in the country. Perhaps most surprising of all is the level of collaboration between public, private and governmental sectors to deliver donations, supplies, medical services and basic needs to the people of Haiti. How can we learn from this united front and apply lessons learned to other causes we fight for around the world?

"We, like many others, have been so impressed by the response of charitable organizations and corporations to the Haiti Earthquake Relief," said Brittany Hill, Managing Director of Cause Minded. "We wanted to learn more about the challenges of their philanthropic support and their plans for the future. Through our upcoming webinar, we hope to educate our members on such issues and inspire them to share this collaborative spirit as they jumpstart change for their own social causes."
