How it used to be
11th of September 2001
Everyone sat by the TV waiting for the latest news.
There was not much you could do from the other side of the world.

We started getting involved..
The tsunami victims filmed with their mobile phones, and emailed it to friends and family
They spread the videos on blogs
We wanted to read the victims stories,not the medias.

A disaster that involved the vast majority!

Social media made it possibly for us to help, from the other side of the world!
Donating hasnever beeneasier
How Zynga helped Haiti with Farmville
Donate and get rare flowers
100% of all contributionsto the Zynga Haiti Relief Fund will help our friends in Haiti who are
suffering from a devastating earthquake.
The devastation in Haiti is unimaginable, and anything we or our users can do is tiny compared to the utter loss for this nation. In our small way, I hope we can enable our users to help and touch Haiti in a meaningful way where every dollar raised can make a difference -
Zynga C.E.O. and founder Mark Pincus:
1 week later
Farmville players alone raised 1 million dollars with the Sweet Seeds for Haiti- Haitian Relief campaign.
...and got a reward.
This is what actor Hugh Jackman did
