Empowering Partnership

When emergency room physician and Abundance Foundation president Stephen Kahn came to us in
need of a website a mere 10 days before his pitch to the Clinton Global Initiative, we engaged in some serious design triage. Created in three days and programmed in five, abundancefound.org is

the online home for an innovative partnership between Kahn’s foundation, Harvard Medical School, international NGO Partners in Health and others to “transform scarcity into abundance.” We love opportunities like this: wielding the power of design to empower the social causes we believe in.

Currently focused on improving the state of health care in Haiti and Rwanda, Abundance Foundation provides support, funding, resources, training and expertise to existing local programs that are already making a positive impact on local health and economic empowerment.

We made absolutely no contribution to this brilliant video – it was created by Ciné Institute, Haiti’s only film school and an Abundance Foundation partner. But we encourage you to watch it. You’ll be moved.

Effective fundraising starts with effective storytelling. Abundancefound.org accomplishes both. Help us support Haiti’s Heros with your own donation.
