CAN-DO HEROES


As a disaster relief organization, we go anywhere in the world and do whatever it takes to get the job done. Our “get it done” approach continues to make an impact that expands exponentially because of you and every person in the CAN-DO community who takes action to do something – from donating to spreading the word to your network, launching innovative fundraising campaigns to jumping on a plane and heading to the frontlines.


There are some people who go far beyond the call of duty and exemplify the values and philosophy of CAN-DO through their unbelievable initiative and direct action. They are our CAN-DO Heroes and it is because of them that we continue to expand our impact and our dedication to changing the face of philanthropy – in Haiti and beyond.


Through the work of these incredible individuals, we now have greater resources and aid going directly to the frontlines. Each of them exemplifies the direct action, “get it done” attitude that is the basis of the CAN-DO approach.
