Hiro Wakabayashi, president of
Tohatsu America Corp., the US and Canadian distributor for
Nissan Marine, told his dealers, “The recent disaster caused by
Hurricane Katrina has left countless people in dire need of our
help. In times of great national tragedies such as the
unprecedented devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina, it is
important for everyone to come together and help in any way
possible. We strongly believe in the work the American Red Cross
is performing in the affected areas and we want to help those
affected by Hurricane Katrina in any way we can.”
Nissan Marine
encourages every individual to help support the various agencies
dedicated to aiding the victims and their families. One such
agency, the American Red Cross, has been providing relief to
disaster victims for over 100 years and assistance is given free
of charge, made possible by your donations. As a non-profit
organization led by volunteers, money donated to the American
Red Cross goes directly to the people that need your help. You
can find more information and make donations on the American Red
Cross website at

With your
support, we can all make a difference in the lives of everyone
affected by this disaster. |
