Boston, MA – On April 25, 2015, Nepal was hit by a major earthquake. The charitable organization Direct Relief quickly mobilized medical supplies and personnel in and around Kathmandu immediately following the catastrophic event. They are coordinating efforts by local organizations and international partners to reach those struggling in the wake of this disaster.
To support their humanitarian efforts in Nepal, Cheng & Tsui Company donated five percent of all individual web purchases made during the month of May 2015 to Direct Relief.
“At a time like this, it is important for people to extend a helping hand to those in need,” said Jill Cheng, President & CEO of Cheng & Tsui. “As individuals, we express our sympathies by supporting disaster relief through our communities. As a company, I believe it is our social responsibility to do no less.”
Cheng & Tsui would like to thank all our customers who joined our effort in helping the victims of the earthquake and supporting the disaster recovery in Nepal.
