Corporate Social Responsibility > Humanitarian > Haiti Earthquake 2010
| A 7.0 earthquake struck the country of Haiti on 12 January. It has affected the capital Port-au-Prince and other areas in the West Province which has an estimated population of 2.2 million. | ||||
| Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Many of its nearly 10 million residents live in abject poverty. The country's most severe earthquake in more than 200 years has resulted in the death of nearly 200,000 people and displaced close to 400,000. Initial reports indicate that many buildings including the presidential palace, homes and walls toppled under the strain of the earthquake. | ||||
| In line with our commitment to our Corporate Social Responsibility in making a positive difference towards our community well-being through charitable deeds, TekMark has initiated a fund raising through voluntary contribution from all TekMarkers to support the survivors of Haiti earthquake. The fund raised shall be contributed to a charity organization i.e. World Vision Malaysia and it will be channeled to the survivors and help them rebuild their lives. | ||||
