Hunter Douglas, Inc., a manufacturer and marketer of custom window coverings, recently donated a total of $550,000 to two nonprofits-the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and Habitat for Humanity International-to help relieve the suffering and aid the recovery of the Haitian people following the massive earthquake and its terrible aftermath.
Hunter Douglas matched all contributions from its employees, independent fabricator partners, retail dealers, and other friends. In only four weeks, the company received close to $275,000 in contributions to its Haitian Relief Fund Drive.
“I’m so proud of my colleagues, partners and customers who participated in this drive to aid those in desperate need of help and support,” says Hunter Douglas President and CEO Marv Hopkins. “The compassion and generosity of our employees and friends are most impressive and heartwarming.”
