Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The powerful 8.9 magnitude earthquake struck Japan on March 11th, 2011. The worst in Japan's history, the earthquake triggered a tsunami warning across 20 countries along the Pacific coast and hit the Eastern Coast of Japan which devastated the region. The Red Cross’ response was immediate. Local volunteers have been working around the clock to support emergency response efforts including evacuation, search and rescue and emergency first aid.
In response to both the urgency and employee concern, ATU Canada is partnering with the Canadian Red Cross to assist in providing immediate relief and aid to the victims of the Japan Earthquake and subsequent Tsunami.
The ATU Canadian Council has made a contribution to kick-start the Japan Earthquake / Tsunami fundraiser. We invite everyone to support this worthwhile and urgent fundraising appeal by visiting www.redcross.ca/atu and completing the form. Everyone who makes a donation will then receive an electronic tax receipt.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for your contribution to this urgent appeal.
In Solidarity,
