PGE Foundation Makes $10K Emergency Grant to Mercy Corps’ Haiti Relief On Tuesday, Jan. 19, the PGE Foundation--Portland General Electric’s corporate foundation--quickly approved a $10,000 emergency grant to Mercy Corps to be used for Haiti relief efforts.
The funds will go toward helping Mercy Corps meet the immediate needs of survivors--water, food, shelter, hygiene--in the aftermath of the devastating 7.0-magnitude earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12. “So many Oregonians want to help the earthquake victims in Haiti, and Mercy Corps is there on the ground helping with immediate emergency efforts and long-range solutions,” said Carole Morse, President, PGE Foundation. “Along with PGE employees who are supporting Haiti relief efforts with personal donations, the PGE Foundation wanted to make an emergency grant to help this Portland-based global relief organization with their critical work.” |
