A PICTURE OF HAITI: 6 MONTHS LATER

Wednesday, July 14, 2010 

 
Six months after the earthquake, as the rubble and staggering human needs have slowly shifted from media focus, we’ve invited some of the leading NGOs, artists and grassroot organizations working in Haiti to share their insights into what’s happening on the ground, what projects are really making a difference, and how we can support them.  


Doors open 6:30pm, presentations and discussion 7-8pm, party 8-10pm


featuring:

charity: water
Clinton Foundation
Partners In Health
Swoon & Ben Wolf for Konbit Shelter
