STAFF ASSOCIATION DELIVERS CHECK FOR HAITI TO ROWE MEMORIAL BENEFIT FUND

The Staff Committee is pleased to inform that the Haiti Family Fund that was opened to receive donations for the victims of the Haiti earthquake collected a total of $13,540.  We thank all OAS staff members and retirees for your support and solidarity in accomplishing this goal.

The money raised was paired with a similar amount from the Rowe Memorial Benefit Fund.  A total of $27,080 will be distributed among 44 staff members and contracted personnel linked to the GS/OAS who were affected by the earthquake.
