A Message from USGBC National
USGBC and its members are uniquely positioned to help in the rebuilding of the homes, schools, hospitals and infrastructure demolished in the devastating earthquake in Haiti. USGBC CEO Rick Fedrizzi traveled to Haiti last spring with UN Special Envoy to Haiti President Bill Clinton and a small UN working group, and they have begun developing plans that will jumpstart the rebuilding effort. We’ve also offered to work with our members to develop solutions informed by our work in New Orleans and Greensburg in the wake of the natural disasters that devastated those communities. We will provide ongoing information on our plans and how members of the USGBC family can get involved. One way to provide immediate assistance is through the Clinton Foundation Haiti Relief Fund, which has been established to help channel assistance efforts.
