The SIGGRAPH Graphics Pioneers, an organization formed by scientists, engineers, artists, and industry professionals in computer graphics have adopted a house being built by the Make It Right Foundation. The Pioneers are asking you to help survivors of Hurricane Katrina with monetary donations to the foundation.

Make It Right, a collaboration between actor Brad Pitt, Graft Architects, Cherokee Gives Back, and William McDonough & Partners was founded in 2007 to help rebuild the New Orleans Lower 9th Ward, an area wiped out during Hurricane Katrina. The foundation has committed to building 150 energy-efficient, solar powered, storm-resistant homes in that area.

Donate directly to the Make it Right Foundation, The House that SIGGRAPH Pioneers Built.
