Chrissie Brodigan: We Have to Donate to Chile Too? Disaster Donation This Time Around

Chrissie Brodigan: We Have to Donate to Chile Too? Disaster Donation This Time Around: "Disaster tech is underway, with Google launching new apps to find the missing, crisismappers mapping the disaster areas, photos documenting wreckage from Chile are pouring in, crisis response organizers are dispatching assistance of all forms, journalists on are the move, and artists are making infographics. Amidst the obvious mobilization, you can bet that leaders within non-profits are also convening and trying to figure out their response strategy. Haiti's fundraising was an unprecedented success, but with both staff and donor fatigue, fundraising for Chile might be much harder."
