He describes how with the widespread adoption of social media in the non-profit sector, people’s ability to act and support communities in need like Haiti has only been increased.

Since 2010 was an abnormal year for online giving - due to the wave of offerings for Haiti’s earthquake relief - many organizations received a gift that year, but never heard back from the donor. We found that organizations enforcing a retention strategy were able to keep 15 percent of their new Haiti-related donors the following year.
