n support of Typhoon Yolanda relief
efforts, Evergreen Line provided
discounted rates for three 40-foot
containers. One was paid for by
Thunderbolt Global Logistics (owned by
Jim Shapiro
and
Stu Tobin
) and two by
Rosedale Baptist Church, through the
assistance of the
Rev. Scott Tewell
.
Scott Damasiewicz
from Rukert
Terminals Corporation arranged for free
transportation of the three containers
to and from the Port of Baltimore and
the church, where they were filled with
donated clothes and canned goods earlier
this winter.
Josie Frias
, Export Coordinator for
Thunderbolt, gave special thanks to
Mary Jane Norris
of the Maryland Port
Administration (MPA) for emails
promoting their efforts and for other
volunteer assistance. “I am truly blessed
with all the help from everyone,” Frias said.
The three containers arrived at the Cebu
Port of the Philippines in mid-January.
