Help Repair Haiti

Poster uploaded to the Design for Haiti website

I designed this poster for the Design for Haiti website, which was created by Aaron Perry-Zucker, who also created the Design for Obama website, in which I also participated. Click here to see my entry on the website and rate it.

My poster, shows the red and blue colors of the Haitian flag and the word “Haiti” with a vertical rift being sewn together with a needle and thread. The message: repair Haiti!

The purpose of this website is for designers to use their creativity to help call for advocacy and understanding in light of the devastation and upheaval created by the recent earthquake.

In general, human services around the world are in great need of more people with case management certification, to aid those suffering.
