Haiti earthquake

Posted by Molly Reed on 01.13.10 @ 10:19 AM File Under: MISC

After seeing what happened yesterday in Haiti, one of our employees suggested that we might be able to organize a group donation to organizations providing aid. A few hours and several discussions later, we were able to combine company funds and employee contributions to donate $45,100 to the following organizations:

Events like this make us feel fortunate for the safety of our families. I just wanted to take a moment to commend our employees for getting involved and recognize how honored I am to be able to work with such a great group of caring and generous people.

If you've been thinking about donating to an aid organization, we hope that this inspires you to take the next step.

    Thanks you Omni Group. You are a great company and I am proud to be one of your customers. If only every company cared as much about humanity as profits what a better world this would be.

    Great. FYI. I'm using omnifocus to organize a project to bring a group of 25 orphans up to Bflo. So your efforts are helping even more people.
