We can’t imagine the hardship those impacted are dealing with.” said Mike Streb, Director of Sales. Streb went on to comment how impressive the American Red Cross is in responding to these horrific situations, saying “they are always the first ones in and last ones out when a disaster hits”. 


These feelings are shared by the entire company, Co-Founder William Hale, “The Northeast region has always been a loyal customer base for us, now it’s our turn to repay our friends in need. We are honored to be able to support the Red Cross and help our neighbors in the Northeast.” The program will run from November 5th through November 11th, during the most active period for the online retailer in order to boost donation levels.
