We’ve all toiled late into the night on projects for good causes with scant hope of any recognition…we’re do-gooders after all!

We believe one good deed deserves another, so join us in November as we announce the winners of cause/affect 2011: the biennial, international design competition that celebrates the work of designers and organizations who set out to positively impact our society. Join the celebration where we’ll recognize the truly worthy and give out a stack of awards to those whose creative work stacks up, check out the winners in our gallery and connect with other do-gooders.

RSVP today!

And if you simply can’t wait until November, there’s still time to vote for your favorite nomination in our People’s Choice Award, which offers a sampling of the design delights we’ll be exhibiting. Voting ends October 21st and the winning project will be announced at the awards ceremony.
