BroadCause Teams Up With Honda to Raise Funds for American Red Cross

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Apr 25, 2011) - BroadCause, a platform for social good that engages and activates passionate communities around the causes that are most important to them, today launched a campaign to raise funds for the American Red Cross. All proceeds will benefit disaster recovery and relief efforts in Japan and the Pacific. The week-long campaign is sponsored by the all-new 2012 Honda Civic.

Since March 23, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. in Japan has pledged to provide $3.7 million to the Red Cross' recovery efforts, along with 1,000 generators. In response to a huge outpouring of support from Honda's extended family of associates, customers and suppliers, American Honda Motor Co., Inc., has established a microsite to channel donations to the American Red Cross. Over the next week, BroadCause will drive traffic to the microsite and socialize the campaign via Facebook sharing, Tweets and Experience Project stories, generating more than two million impressions daily.

"We've seen an incredible show of support and generosity from the extended Honda family," said Steve Center, vice president of National Marketing Operations for American Honda Motor Co. "We are grateful to our associates, customers, suppliers and fans for all the help they have pledged thus far and today we're teaming up with BroadCause to extend the reach of this crucial call for help even further."

Brands use BroadCause to authentically align themselves with causes and to raise awareness for charities that matter to them and their fans. Featured BroadCause campaigns reach an engaged and passionate user base and generate more than two million impressions every day. A product of Experience Project, Inc., BroadCause has worked in partnership with some of the world's largest brands, including Sony, Nestlé, Paramount Pictures and American Express.
