As some of you may know, we have many workers, associates and friends who were affected by the world's largest typhoon that rocked the Philippines recently. Since receiving the awful news, we have been working nonstop to offer some relief. Locally, we've met some of the most amazing people who are offering their time, resources and in some cases personal safety to lend a helping hand. Mitt and Ann Romney have been working on sourcing planes to carry medical supplies, food and a group of medical doctors, security and other personnel to the region. We have many business friends who are offering up pallets of their food bars, camping equipment and financial donations. Many friends are setting up booths at local Wal-Mart stores, collecting donations and other supplies.
Charity Vision (who provides cataract eye surgeries along with other medical assistance in the devestated region) is offering up their 501(c)3 charity as a place to accept donations and are preparing to receive our volunteers and supplies. I've worked with Charity Vision before and feel VERY comfortable referring them as a reputable source.
If you are able to donate, please follow this link to Charity Vision's donation page and type in "Philippine Relief" in the comments section.
Sincerely,
Brian Oaks
