Randa Accessories supports relief efforts for Haitian families

Sunday, January 17, 2010

The disaster in Haiti has touched us all, and as fellow humans and global citizens we feel compelled to support the relief efforts in every way possible. Therefore Randa, on behalf of all our associates, will be taking immediate action by providing a financial contribution of $10,000 and product contributions including flashlights and multi-tools via our 37 year partnership with Save the Children. This donation is dedicated to their extraordinary relief efforts in Haiti.

Save the Children has identified up to 2 million children affected by the Haiti earthquake. A Save the Children emergency response team successfully reached Haiti Thursday and worked quickly with staff already on the ground to organize the distribution of tents, medicine, and toiletries to children and families in desperate need.

"Save the Children is extremely concerned about the well-being of children in Haiti at this critical moment and we are doing everything we can to quickly get relief supplies to those who need it most," said Charles MacCormack, President and CEO of Save the Children. "Our staff on the ground is pulling out all the stops to overcome hurdles like blocked roads and unreliable access to the airport."

Save the Children is the leading, independent organization that creates lasting change for children in need in the United States and around the world. Save the Children USA is a member of the International Save the Children Alliance, a global network of 29 independent Save the Children organizations working to ensure the well-being and protection of children in more than 120 countries.
