TORONTO, February 22, 2010 – The catastrophic earthquake that struck Haiti near the country’s capital of Port-au-Prince in early January resulted in hundreds of thousands of people left dead or injured. It also left the island state in tremendous need of food, water, medical care, and shelter to meet the most basic needs of its citizens.
CMN Inc.’s employees heard about the devastation that had occurred in Haiti and immediately responded. Through raffles, bake sales, personal donations, and other fundraising efforts, the team raised over $2,500 toward disaster relief within a few short days.
After witnessing the generous and heartfelt efforts of CMN’s employees, the company’s leadership team immediately approved a corporate match of the total amount raised. And with the Government of Canada matching donations for Haitian disaster relief, CMN’s total contribution was almost $10,000 in financial aid for the people of Haiti!
“There are many reasons for me to be very proud of CMN staff,” said Alex Kroon, President and Chief Executive Officer of CMN Inc. “Our employees assist and serve every day, but really pushed themselves to support Haiti. The coordinated efforts of our staff, CMN, and government demonstrate our commitment to social responsibility.”
