Global Manufacturer of Hand Sanitizing Wipes Donates 50,000 Cases of Products For Haiti Relief

ORANGEBURG, N.Y., Feb. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- In light of the Jan. 12 earthquake in Haiti, Nice-Pak/Professional Disposables International, Inc. (PDII) has donated products and money to both Feed the Children and the American Red Cross Haitian relief fund to help those affected by the disaster.

The New York-based company has already donated 20,000 cases of products to Feed the Children, a non-profit aid organization that runs multiple clinics in Haiti and ships supplies directly to those clinics that have been serving as makeshift hospitals and assistance centers since the earthquake. PDII plans to donate 30,000 additional cases of products to reach a total of approximately $650,000 worth of donations. Products donated include baby wipes, miscellaneous personal care products and alcohol pads.

"Many of our associates closer to home were affected by this tragedy and were concerned about loved ones in the impacted area," said Robert Julius, chairman and CEO of Nice-Pak/PDII. "Our associates have rallied together across all our sites to raise money for the relief efforts, which truly underscores the Nice-Pak/PDII spirit and dedication of our employees."

Nice-Pak/PDII matched the funds dollar for dollar that employees raised through bake sales, pizza slice donations, fund drop boxes and spare change jars. The company is also working with medical and local relief agencies such as Rockland County Haiti Relief and Konbit Neg Lakay to launch a non-perishable drive to collect needed items to help those affected by the earthquake.
