The system is committing 5 million bottles of water for relief agencies, of which nearly 1 million are allocated to support the people since the floods began earlier this year. More than 100,000 meals will have been provided to flood victims.
Seattle Mercantile Exchange and Seattle Mercantile Exchange Humanity Foundation Thailand have invested in PR activities to raise awareness about the "Unite to Rebuild Thailand" and to raise money as well as volunteer signups for the Seattle Mercantile Exchange Humanity Foundation Thailand to assist in immediate flood relief and rebuilding.
"This flood has hurt and affected many people and devastated numerous areas throughout Thailand," said Mr. Daniel Jefferson MD & CEO of Seattle Mercantile Exchange. "Our sympathy goes out to the people of Thailand, our customers, partners, suppliers and friends who have been affected and who are still under threat."
All Company associates in Thailand are safe, but many are still at risk of losing their flooded homes. The Company will continue to provide relief support and aid to the people in the region.
