Good360 Aiding Hurricane Victims with Household Needs to Rebuild Lives

Victims of Hurricane Irma also will receive assistance from Good360, the charity the International Housewares Association has partnered with to provide hurricane victims with home goods products as they rebuild their lives and homes. Last week IHA announced its partnership with Good360 to help Texas recover from Hurricane Harvey.

Good360 is working closely with the Federal Emergency Management Association to help shelters with immediate needs such as personal items, toiletries and water. The recovery and rebuilding phases in Texas, Florida and other areas affected by Irma will last for months and years. IHA members can help Good360 pre-position product to help in the rebuilding phase. Companies with products that can help in any stage of the disaster can easily complete Good360’s online donation form https://good360.org/good360-donation-intake-form and the Good360 staff will get the donated product to the right place at the right time to best assist the victims of Harvey and Irma.

When making a donation, companies should note that they are members of IHA to help Good360 track the donations. Companies can also request their donations go to a specific area of need.

“Along with the millions of residents dealing with the devastation of Irma, more than 50 IHA member companies are located in Florida and were greatly affected as well. The work of Good360 and the generosity of the housewares industry will help make a difference for millions of hurricane victims in Florida, Texas and other areas impacted by Irma and Harvey,” said Phil Brandl, IHA President and CEO.

Members with questions about donating product can contact Jim Alvey, Good360’s director of corporate development, at jalvey@good360.org or visit Good360.org for more information.
