The Salvation Army and Blackbaud Partner to Support Haiti Relief Online Fundraising

Blackbaud, Inc., (Nasdaq: BLKB) today announced that it is partnering with The Salvation Army World Service Office to power its Haiti relief online fundraising efforts. The site, which is now live, is processing donations at https://donate.salvationarmyusa.org/.

The Salvation Army has had a presence in Haiti since 1950 and currently operates schools, clinics, a hospital, feeding programs, children's homes and church-related activities spread across two major facilities in Port au Prince, close to the epicenter of the earthquake.  The Salvation Army continues to mobilize people and resources to assist with the international relief effort in Haiti. With the tremendous response from the public to this disaster, Blackbaud was asked to assist The Salvation Army with an unprecedented surge of online donations. 

"We are working with partners like Blackbaud to maximize our ability to process donations that provide needed supplies to the people of Haiti," said Major George Hood, national community relations secretary. "We turned to our Blackbaud team to provide technology that we could count on to handle such tremendous volume. Blackbaud's rapid response helped us get our Haiti relief site up and running in a matter of hours, with no disruption to our fundraising efforts."
