CARE seems like it has some of Easterly's Planner tendencies in that it has some Big Goals
(and celebrity faces on its homepage) but it seems that many of its methods are more those of searchers in that it gets involved with local families and communities to understand the problems they face and ways that they can help them.

I have heard that this is a very intensive process, and the site even states that this process is not renewable in the traditional sense of the word. Nonetheless, it seems that this could be a very viable power source for many parts of the world.
