How Social Media Makes A Difference
"Global Relief" Page on Facebook
"The devastating earthquake in Haiti has underscored the internet's critical role in connecting the world's population in times of tragedy," Facebook spokesperson Andrew Noyes said in a statement.
Facebook launched "global relief" on Thursday, with the aim to assit victims of natural disasters such as the earthquake that hit Haiti.
Facebook has in excess of 350 million members, which is an enormous pool of people who can be targeted for social good.
The Facebook spokesperson said that since Tuesday's 7.0-magnitude earthquake in Haiti, more than 1 500 status updates a minute have been posted to Facebook containing the word "Haiti".
The Global Relief on Facebook page is located at Facebook.com/globalrelief.
