About Jaz Cummins
This blog keeps record of times when I’ve been a good blogger, whether here, my Londonist London blogger interview series or even some of my old Shiny Red posts. As well as projects I’ve been involved in, namely:
2009-10 PR for Twestival – £300k raised to date, via 100% volunteer run Twitter-connected events.
2009-10 Online PR for Refugee Week‘s campaign Simple Acts via Bright One, a volunteer-run communications agency for the Third Sector, has also been great fun.
Meanwhile I left my role as Amnesty International‘s Web & New Media Manager in October 2010 to head to The Guardian’s new Global Development site, and looking after the community there; more on my Linked In.

Hello Jaz,
We haven’t met before so forgive us for a quick introduction. We’re Robin of Shoreditch, an anonymous group of creative outlaws looking to take from the rich and give to the poor. In this particular instance, the people of Haiti.
How? Well, we’re not rescue workers. And we’d be no good on a celebrity single. But what we can do is provide creative ideas that can add value to businesses and brands. So we’re providing every one of Brand Z’s Top 100 brands with just such a creative idea. In return, all we’re asking for is 1/10,000,000 (that’s one ten-millionth) of the value of those brands as a fee. Not for us. 100% of that fee will be going to the continued relief efforts in Haiti.
So why should you care? Well, we’d like to ask a little favour. You see, the more people who know about this project, the more pressure will build on the brands to pay their ‘invoices’ and the more money will be sent to Haiti. So we’d really appreciate it if you could put the word out on your blog and send people along to http://www.robinofshoreditch.com. Hopefully that way news of the project will spread so that the brands in question see that it’s in their best interests to pay up.
We do hope you can help.
Thanks
Robin of Shoreditch
