In the twelve days since we first blogged about the Myanmar and China disasters, Sun employees and others have raised more than $34,000 (USD) in contributions through our Disaster Relief Drive online tool administered by Aidmatrix.

Contributions really took off after Bill MacGowan, Sun's Chief Human Resources Officer and Executive Vice President People & Places, sent an email to all Sun employees around the globe about the Disaster Relief Drive.

 

If you would like to help keep the momentum of support going, you can make a donation directly through Sun's Disaster Relief Drive to one of three nonprofit organizations (Red Cross, World Vision, Save the Children)---you will see these choices when you get to the “check out” page of the Aidmatrix tool.

The tool is open and available to anyone---Sun employees, friends, family members---anyone.

If you have a different charity you would like to support---and there are many others---by all means please do so with Godspeed.   The help is needed.    

Thank you for your contributions in this time of need.    If you have any questions about Sun's Disaster Relief Drive, please contact volunteersupport@sun.com.  

 

Note to Sun Employees:    Sun will match your contribution through the Aidmatrix tool---select this option at the "check out" page.    If you wish to contribute to a different nonprofit of your choice, Sun will also match your contribution to qualified nonprofits per the guidelines of Sun's Matching Gift Program.   Program guidelines apply to either of these scenarios.    Send any questions to volunteersupport@sun.com.
