Architecture for Humanity is partnering with PechaKucha in "Global PechaKucha Day for Haiti" to raise $1,000,000 for rebuilding Haiti:

"In organizing this event PechaKucha intends to not only raise funds through pledges from host cities and contributions from individuals but also illustrate the power of innovative minds, creative passion and, most of all, sharing ideas for change and sustainability."
