Neways North America Sends Aid to Haiti Earthquake Survivors

SPRINGVILLE, Utah, Jan 20, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- In response to the earthquake that recently ripped through Haiti, Neways North America (www.neways.com/usa) is sending more than 6,000 hygiene items to assist survivors of this tragic event.

"How can you not look at the news and see the devastation and not want to help?" asked managing director Thierry Sorhaitz. "I am so grateful that I work for a company that cares and responds to those in need." Neways North America partnered with Globus Relief, a nonprofit organization, to ship its donation to Haiti and is very grateful for their trusted partnership.

Globus Relief and Neways have worked together on many projects.

"Thanks to donors like Neways, Globus Relief is able to make a timely response to help the victims of the Haiti earthquake," said Globus Relief's director of donor relations, Darlyn Eddington. "With our distribution channels in place, the Neways donation of hygiene products will help meet the critical needs of those suffering such devastating losses. Thank you, Neways." This donation was put together quickly, thanks to the combined efforts of many Neways employees, including the stock-room employees who prepared the shipment, the driver who rushed it to Globus, and others who organized the aid.

"It's great to see us all work together for the benefit of others," said Sorhaitz. "It's a wonderful feeling to know that you're thinking outside of yourself and to see everyone coordinate and come together for the common good." Neways communications coordinator Megan Lavin's husband has family in Haiti. "I know that these products will make a huge difference in survivors' lives," she said. "It adds extra meaning to know that my company's products will be benefiting people so close to my heart. It helps me feel like I was able to contribute and add my small part." If you wish to donate, please contact Globus Relief at 801-977-0444.
